Uganda is a landlocked country in eastern Africa, straddling the equator, bordering Kenya to the east, Tanzania and Rwanda to the south, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west and Sudan to the north. Most of the territory is located in the Central African Plateau, many lakes, with an average elevation of 1000,000,1200 meters above sea level. There are many lakes and plateaus in the mountains, which are known as "plateau water villages". 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. The output ranks second in Africa, after Ethiopia. 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. Uganda's best coffee is mainly produced in the mountains of Elgon and Bugisu along the Kenyan border in the northeast and Ruwensori in the west.
