I'm delighted to be working with Omwani Coffee who are working directly with Ugandan coffee farmers to highlight what amazing coffee can be found there. Typically Uganda has been growing Robusta coffee but now the focus is on Arabica varietals like this amazing coffee.
The name ‘Bukonzo Dream’ originates from the Bukonzo tribes-people of Uganda. They are friendly and welcoming people who dream of being able to provide better opportunities for each generation. The farmers have a strong entrepreneurial spirit and given the opportunity of producing a harvest which will give them a greater yield and ultimately a better return, they are willing to go extra lengths to ensure a fantastic crop.
Since first tasting this coffee it has really stood out as one of my favourites with a beautiful flavour profile.
