About:

The name of this coffee comes from the Sipi Falls, which is a series of three waterfalls that lie on the edge of Mount Elgon National Park in Eastern Uganda. The areas surrounding the falls are well known for the cultivation of ‘Bugisu’ arabica.  The Sipi Falls Coffee Project was first initiated in 1999 and has grown to incorporate more than 5,000  smallholder producers who tend an area over 2000 hectares in size.  Approx 3.5 million families are linked to coffee through the coffee project. This is my first time selling a coffee from Uganda!
