Uganda, located in eastern Africa, landlocked countries, bordering Kenya and Tanzania, is bordered by many large lakes, such as Lake Victoria (Victoria Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Africa), Lake Albert (albert), Lake Edward and Lake Geoga. The whole country is located on the plateau, with an average elevation of 900 meters, and most areas have a savanna climate. Ugandans are generally warm and gentle, and when they see us, they shout "China!" in a friendly way. Indeed, the local law and order is stable, going out at night does not require much prevention, and there are fewer diseases (of course, theft still exists). Like Kenya, because of the early British colonial rule, it belongs to the Commonwealth country, and English is the official language. During the reign of the 18th century, it was called the "the pearl of Africa" of Africa by the British Empire.

Ruwenzori Mountains

The Ruwenzori Mountains were formed about 2 million years ago. It is 125km long and stretches along the border between Zaire and Uganda. In the local African language, "Ruwenzori" means "rainmaker". Indeed, there is a lot of rain and fog here, and the peaks are shrouded in clouds for 300 days a year.

Everything here seems to be at least twice its normal size. Luwenzori earthworms can be up to 1 meter long, as thick as a human thumb. The black boar here is the behemoth of the African wild boar. It weighs about 160 kilograms and the standing height is 1 meter from shoulder to shoulder. A plant called Scutellaria barbata, which is often seen in many gardens, has become a 2-meter-high candle-shaped spike here. The bamboo on the mountain is 12 meters long and the sedge is 1.8 meters long.

The Mt Rwenzori Mountains, known as the "Mountains of the Moon", are located in western Uganda and are the border between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Coffee is Uganda's main cash crop, accounting for 95% of Uganda's total exports.

The local Bukonzo people live in these mountains and have been farming in this area for hundreds of years. The mountain area has fertile soil and good climatic conditions, which is very suitable for coffee cultivation.

The Ugandan sun is not only a return of classic flavor, but also a representation of the high quality of African coffee beans. The strong aroma nurtured by this soft volcanic soil sincerely feels that it is the energy given by nature. It really makes people feel a little incredible.

The Ruwenzori Mountains, a mountain range on the border between Uganda and Congo, are about 130 km long from north to south and 50 km wide, located between Lake Edward and Lake Albert. The equatorial peaks of the Ruwenzori Mountains are covered with snow all the year round, and the magical wonders are obscured by thick fog.

The Maliba area is mainly soft volcanic soil, rich in minerals, and is surrounded by extensive forest vegetation and water sources. Because of this excellent and special geographical environment, this bean has a stronger aroma. Sincerely say that this aroma seems to have a kind of magic, it is difficult to say that it is a comprehensive fruit aroma worn alone, that is, it is a very fragrant, refreshing feeling, and it simply makes you stunned after grinding. This aroma alone can be intoxicated and put yourself in a good mood.

Qianjie coffee is recommended to be brewed at a water temperature of 90 ℃. The steaming time is about 30 seconds. Seeing the surface of the powder bed becomes dry means that steaming is over. During the dry fragrance, you will feel a very strong fruity aroma, which is basically coming out of the powder mouth, while the wet fragrance will become a little softer, with a faint smell similar to citrus and plum apricot, and a little cherry feeling.

In the process of cooking, the smell is a little licorice, but the core can still smell the kind of sour and sweet feeling brought by the comprehensive fruit, and the soft feeling that people look forward to.

Qianjie coffee feels that the overall entrance of this bean is very smooth and soft, the coffee liquid is very clean and clear, it is very comfortable to drink, and the taste is very good. In fact, the entrance is not very bright and sour, but it is soft. But every mouthful of the flavor is like drinking fruit juice, the taste is very domineering, full and solid. The sweetness of the tail rhyme is also very good, with a little bit of caramel.
