From Ugandan vines to European kitchens

From Ugandan vines to European kitchens

Our beans come from smallholder growers in Uganda, hand-pollinated and harvested at full maturity, then killed, sweated, dried and conditioned over several months. The result is a bean with soft leather skin, a high oil content and a rounded, chocolate-and-raisin aroma.
