Qianjie-Ugandan Coffee introduction

Uganda, a landlocked country at the source of the Nile, has a history of producing coffee as long as other East African countries, but the quality of coffee has not been improved because of the war caused by ethnic antagonism. it was not until 15 years ago after the end of the war that Uganda's coffee industry developed rapidly.

If Ethiopia is the birthplace of Arabica coffee, then Uganda is the hometown of Luodou. During the colonial era, with the encouragement of the British, Uganda began to widely cultivate low-altitude species of Robusta. Today, Uganda has become the second largest exporter of Robusta in the world. Eighty-five percent of the coffee grown in Uganda is robusta coffee.

Uganda is one of the few countries in the world that can grow both Arabica and Robusta, with an environment and climate suitable for coffee growth. Uganda is located between 9-2000 meters above sea level, with an annual temperature of 15 ℃-28 ℃. The price of Robusta is usually based on the size of the sieve hole. Coffee beans with sieve holes between 18 and 15 will have a unique flavor. Arabica is divided by region, Bugisu,Drugar and Gemuthindu, which produce slightly different coffee, but both have medium fruity acidity.

Robusta is native to Uganda and is mainly divided into two varieties: & # 39; Nganda Nganda' and & # 39; Erecta & # 39;

The main species of Arabica are SL-28,SL-14, Typica and Kent.

Ugandan coffee processing is mainly wet processing (washing) and dry (solarization) processing. Most of the robusta coffee is processed by daily dry method, but also a small part of it is processed by wet method. Generally speaking, the quality of wet processing is higher than that of dry processing. There are 537 dry processing plants and 22 wet processing plants in Uganda

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.

Maliba area is mainly soft volcanic soil, rich in minerals, surrounded by extensive forest vegetation and water sources, but also because of this excellent and special geographical environment, sun-treated beans have a stronger aroma. Sincerely say that this aroma seems to have a kind of magic, you can hardly say that it is a comprehensive fruit aroma worn alone, that is, it is very fragrant and refreshing.
