Kamogo

Summary

Kamogo is a coffee from Uganda, produced by Benjamin Jenkin of Cahoots Coffee. Sourced from the Kapchorwa region on Mt. Elgon, grown at 1600-2150 MASL. Varieties are SL-14 and SL-28. The coffee undergoes a Culture Washed process, where a starter culture of native bacteria and yeasts is cultivated, then added to the fermentation tank after pulping. Fermentation lasts roughly 18 hours before washing and drying in a solar dryer for about three weeks. Roasted light-medium and profiled for light espresso but balanced for all brew methods. Tasting notes include juicy figs and dates with a clean, soft citric acidity and almond sweetness, featuring a silky body and long sweet finish.
