Uganda is a landlocked country in eastern Africa, across the equator, most of the territory is located in the Central African Plateau, lakes, with an average elevation of 1000 Murray 1200 meters, there are many lakes and plateaus in the mountains, which is known as the "water village of the plateau". The western branch of the East African Rift Valley runs through the western border, with many rivers and lakes at the bottom of the valley. Uganda has a great Victoria lake, coupled with the high mountains, which makes Uganda a mild climate suitable for growing coffee, although it spans both sides of the equator.

The coffee growing industry in Uganda is one of the pillar industries of its exports. Uganda is the birthplace of Robsta in Africa, just as Ethiopia is the origin of Arabica coffee, while Robster coffee was first discovered in Uganda. So far, Uganda has a history of growing coffee for more than 100 years. At the same time, Uganda is one of the few major countries in Africa dedicated to the production of organic coffee. In Uganda (Uganda), Arabica coffee beans account for only 15% of the country's total coffee production, and Uganda's best coffee is mainly produced in the mountains of Elgon and Bugisu along the Kenyan border in the north-east and Ruwensori in the west.

Mbale on the eastern side of Mount Elgon and other producing areas on the western side near the border of the Democratic Republic of the Congo have the export name Wugar. The official ranks are Oaganic (Organic), Bugisu AA, Bugisu A, Bugisu B, Bugisu PB, Wugar, Drugar and other unlisted grades. To find a good Ugandan coffee, you must first recognize the BugisuAA, An and PB grades, but because the country is inland and has many transport problems, it often comes to raw beans with low moisture content and not green appearance. However, Ugandan coffee is not a type of coffee that emphasizes rising aroma, as long as the raw beans are not and turn 100 or yellowed, they can generally have a good flavor in the producing area, with a low ripe fruit aroma, such as the taste of red wine, and thick mellow thickness. it is similar to some Kenyan beans with low flavor, but it also has a mild soil flavor, so it is quite different from other East African countries in flavor characteristics. On the contrary, it is somewhat similar to Asian Indonesian Sulawesi Tonaga coffee and Java manor coffee. The baking degree between City+ and Full City+ is all better.

Ugandan coffee beans have a unique flavor of delicate taste, which is very suitable for making Italian and other flavors of coffee. More importantly, Ugandan coffee beans are strictly screened according to the standards of the international market to ensure their high quality and pollution-free characteristics.

Africa is the hometown of the two major varieties of coffee, Arabica and Robusta, while Uganda, which is located in eastern Africa, which is known as "plateau water hometown" and "Pearl of East Africa", is believed by many to be the birthplace of Robusta.
