Uganda is located at the source of the Nile River and is a landlocked country in Africa without sea. Although it has a long history of producing coffee like other East African countries, the quality of coffee cannot be improved due to wars caused by ethnic rivalries. Most of the good coffee is grown in the areas adjacent to Kenya. Some good coffee beans are shipped to Kenya to be mixed with Kenyan coffee for sale. Uganda did not become a country with rapid coffee development until the war stopped 15 years ago. Uganda is a country rich in lush green forests, lakes, wetlands and rivers. Coffee is the largest crop in Uganda and earns the most foreign exchange. About 500,000 coffee farms are engaged in coffee-related agriculture, accounting for 25% of the total population. Coffee trees are mostly strong growing Robusta coffee trees. Only 6% of coffee trees are traditional Arabica trees. These rare coffee beans grow in tropical rainforests and are mostly exported to countries around the world.

. Uganda, on the western slopes of the Mr. Elgon mountains near the Kenyan border in the east, produces a fairly good Arabica bean called Bugisu or Bugishu, which has a similar flavor to Kenya but a thinner texture. Officially listed grades are Oaganic (organic), BugisuAA, BugisuA, BugisuB, Bugisu PB, Wugar, Drugar and others not listed. To find Ugandan coffee with excellent performance, we must first identify Bugisu AA, A and PB grades. However, due to the country's inland location and many transportation problems, we often find green beans with low moisture content and not green appearance. However, Ugandan coffee is not a coffee type that emphasizes rising aroma. As long as the green beans are not turned hundred or yellow, they can generally have good flavor performance in the producing area. They have a low ripe fruit aroma, such as red wine taste, and a thick body. It is similar to some low-toned Kenyan beans, but it also has a mild soil flavor, so it is quite different from other East African countries in flavor characteristics, but it is somewhat similar to Asian Indonesian Sulawesi Tornaga coffee and Java country manor coffee. All baking degrees between City and Full City are better.
