Uganda Bukonzo Dream – Single Origin Specialty Arabica

Our Uganda Bukonzo Dream is more than just coffee – it’s a story of heritage, perseverance, and a shared dream. This speciality single-origin Arabica comes from the Ibanda District of Uganda, where the Bukonzo tribespeople nurture their coffee trees on the steep, misty slopes of the Rwenzori Mountains, also called the "Mountains of the Moon."

The name Bukonzo Dream reflects the farmers’ vision: to create a better future for their families through exceptional coffee. Each harvest represents both their cultural tradition and their hope for generations to come.
