Sigma's first Dark roast offering.

THE ORIGIN

From the Rwenzori region in Uganda, where coffee grows in fertile volcanic soils. This lot is a collection from smallholder producers who selectively hand-pick cherries and deliver them the same day. After flotation, cherries dry on raised tables for 21–35 days before being milled in Kampala. Harvest runs September–December.

WHY MOONWAKE SELECTED IT

One of our first releases back in 2020 was a natural Uganda — small-batch, shared with friends, and a spark for everything since. We’ve brought it back, this time with more depth and focus.

THE CUP

Rich cacao at the core. Rum raisin sweetness lifts the profile. Smooth, layered, and approachable. Built as a dark roast that stands well on its own or blends seamlessly with milk. A modern, versatile take on a classic style.

Flavour Notes: Rum & Raisin, Cacao

We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 8-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
