A remarkable DRUGAR (Dried Ugandan Arabica) from the Rwenzori Mountains, where the tradition of naturally processed coffee has supported generations of local families. This coffee, made from SL14 and SL28 varietals, embodies the rich heritage of the region, offering a taste that is as vibrant as the community it uplifts.

African Moon is exceptionally sweet and juicy, with bold cherry flavours and a deep, dark chocolate finish. It's an ideal choice for espresso or as a standout single-origin offering. Beyond its delightful flavour profile, every sip contributes to the livelihoods of the Rwenzori families, preserving their craft and culture.

Cupping Notes

This coffee offers a clean and balanced cup with a delightful aroma hinting at nuts and cocoa. The flavor profile is rich with notes of dark chocolate, brown sugar, and pecan, complemented by a subtle sweetness reminiscent of plum and cashew. The mouthfeel is round and smooth, with a malt-like depth and a lingering finish of cocoa powder. A well-rounded and harmonious experience from start to finish.

Name Agri Evolve
Year Started 2016
Location Nyabirongo, Kisinga, Uganda See on a map

Agri Evolve was established in 2016 with a simple yet ambitious goal: to serve as a reliable collection point for both Dried Ugandan Arabica (DRUGAR) and ripe coffee cherries in the Rwenzori Mountains. Traditionally, farmers in this region processed their coffee themselves, often drying cherries on tarpaulins under the sun. While sourcing DRUGAR was initially easier due to these established practices, changing old habits and encouraging the sale of ripe cherries proved to be a challenge.

However, with significant investment in processing equipment, the creation of demonstration farms, and the hiring of experienced staff, Agri Evolve made remarkable strides in its second year. The quality and quantity of sourced ripe cherries improved drastically, setting the stage for a more refined coffee processing operation.

Today, Agri Evolve boasts modern processing facilities equipped with washer separators, mechanical dryers, hulling machines, and greenhouses. These advancements have greatly enhanced the quality of the coffee produced and solidified Agri Evolve’s reputation among local farmers.

Agri Evolve has become a trusted partner in the farming community, known for paying fair prices consistently and on time—a seemingly simple practice that has made a world of difference for the farmers. Through these efforts, Agri Evolve continues to transform coffee production in the Rwenzori Mountains, fostering growth and sustainability for the future.
