This coffee is considered one of the best Ugandan crops, renowned among coffee enthusiasts. It stands out with its full-bodied taste and diverse flavor notes, delivering the best and most delightful cup of coffee.

The Story:

The Mananasi story begins with a unique social experiment conducted by the “Great Lakes Coffee” team, a tale worth telling. The team decided to work in an area known for producing low-quality, inexpensive Arabica coffee compared to other regions in Uganda.

They sought to develop a special training program for farmers. The training team played a leading role in the community, providing intensive and in-depth courses in agricultural engineering, processing methods, and harvesting.

Then, 35 small-scale farmers were selected for each leading farm, and these small groups were rewarded financially based on their unit’s quality. The higher the quality of the beans, the greater the reward for the working group.

Additionally, the leading farmer received an extra reward for the double training they provided to their colleagues as an incentive and assurance of the knowledge efficiently transferred during the training.
