It is also home to loads of chameleons found hanging out all day on the coffee trees. Ken, Zukuka Bora’s Sipi Falls manager, is working with farmers to improve quality with selective harvesting and better processing methods. Farmers bring cherry to the Zukuka Bora site where it is floated and visually inspected before drying. Zukuka Bora aims to pay the highest price for cherry on the mountain, followed by a bonus, but also requires the best quality cherry. Farmers are paid on the day for cherry, unlike other mills which defer payment until later in the season, which ensures the money goes directly to the farmers and their families. The ripest cherry is selected for natural processing. It is dried on raised beds and turned regularly. The aromas are that of ripe mango and tropical fruits. On the palate you can find intense sweetness, aged muscat and ripe stone fruits. The name and artwork are inspired by our favourite Ugandan pop star Jose Chamelone. Enjoy this delicious coffee while listening to those sweet afrobeat sounds. </span><br></p> <button type="button" class="collapsible">DEEP DIVE +</button> <div class="content"> <br> <p><b>PRODUCER :   </b>Zukuka Bora</p> <p><b>CROP YEAR :   </b>2021</p> <p><b>COUNTRY :   </b>Uganda</p> <p><b>REGION :   </b>Sipi Falls</p> <p><b>ELEVATION :   </b>2000 MASL</p> <p><b>VARIETAL :   </b>SL14 &amp; SL28</p> <p><b>PROCESSING :   </b>NATURAL</p> <p><b>IMPORTER/PARTNER :   </b><a>Commonfolk</a></p> <p><b><a>GEO TAG</a></b>     <a>DOWNLOAD PDF</a></p> <br> </div> <button type="button" class="collapsible">ESPRESSO RECIPE +</button> <div class="content"> <br> <p><b>ESPRESSO MACHINE</b><br>This is just a starting place.
