Mountain Harvest

Mountain Harvest is a beacon of change in Uganda's coffee sector, championing quality, sustainability, and equity for farmers. Since partnering in 2018, we've witnessed the remarkable evolution of their impact initiatives, resulting in coffees we love drinking and progress we're proud to support. This year’s offering, a blend from farms on Mount Elgon, sings with notes of citrus, ginger, and molasses.

Mountain Harvest from Uganda's Mount Elgon region arrives via Counter Culture Coffee, a roaster known for highlighting origin character. This lot showcases a compelling interplay of bright and warming notes—citrus and ginger provide vibrancy, while molasses grounds the cup with subtle sweetness. The combination suggests a coffee with both clarity and body, inviting exploration across the flavor wheel from top to bottom. Mount Elgon's volcanic soils and elevation have long supported distinctive coffee production, and this offering demonstrates why the region merits attention from specialty roasters and drinkers alike.
