THE PRODUCER

Bulambuli Washing Station operates at 2300 metres above sea level in East Uganda, cultivating the classic SL-14 and SL-28 cultivars more commonly associated with Kenya. This high-altitude Ugandan terroir contributes to the exceptional texture and sweetness found in this lot—our sole purchase from the country this year.

THE PROCESS

The Natural process at Bulambuli Washing Station involves:

• 🍒 Cherry Selection — Careful picking at peak ripeness

• ☀️ Natural Drying — Whole cherries dried with fruit intact

• ✅ Quality Sorting — Careful selection to preserve texture and sweetness

This traditional natural process, applied to the SL-14 and SL-28 cultivars, creates the perfect texture and sweetness that defines this standout Ugandan lot.

THE CUP

We taste dark plum, purple grapes and cacao. A natural SL14 + SL28 with the perfect texture and sweetness—our first and only Ugandan purchase this year, and a memorable one at that.
