This experimental microlot originates from the Tangwen community in the Sipi region on the slopes of Mount Elgon, Uganda, at an altitude of 1900-2050 meters. The coffee is a blend of SL28 and SL34 varieties. It undergoes a natural process with an extended anaerobic fermentation in sealed tanks, incorporating fresh passionfruit pulp for up to 60 hours, followed by slow drying on shaded raised beds for 30 days. This process results in a complex cup profile with distinct fruit notes.
