  • Description

    Ibanda is a village in the northern part of Kasese District situated in one of the many valleys of the foothills of the Rwenzori Mountains.

     

    The quality of the harvest has been greatly improved by encouraging farmers to only pick the fully ripe cherries.

     

    Ripe, red coffee cherries are harvested daily during the harvest season and taken to Ibanda. The cherries are weighed, assessed for quality and the farmers are paid in cash. From here trucks carry the cherries to the coffee station at Nyabirongo where the cherries are floated and graded before being sun-dried. The teams turn the cherries several times each day to ensure even drying whilst allowing the cherries to mature and develop their full rich flavours.

     

    This coffee is well structured sweet and fruity with a good body and mouthfeel - a well processed example of the quality of natural coffee from the Rwenzoris.
