Detour Coffee - Uganda Ladies Lot Espresso Coffee Beans

Uganda Ladies Lot Espresso is a direct-trade espresso from Mount Elgon, Uganda, cultivated by a community of 108 Mountain Harvest-certified women smallholder farmers and designed to showcase both exceptional quality and impact in the coffee supply chain. This washed Arabica blend features varieties such as Nyasaland, SL-14, and SL-28 grown at high altitudes between 1600 and 2200 meters above sea level, and it delivers a complex and expressive profile with vibrant citrus brightness, soft milk oolong character, and a silky sweetness reminiscent of cane sugar. The structural clarity and lively acidity make this coffee rewarding for thoughtful espresso extraction and experimentation, and its story reflects a meaningful commitment to uplifting women in production while offering a distinctive cup for the enthusiast who values both flavor and ethical sourcing.

Our Coffee Addicts Promise:

We love fresh coffee as much as you do! We work hard to ensure that each cup of coffee is the highest quality, which is why we recommend coffee to be consumed within 7-28 days of the roast date. Coffee past the roast date is still acceptable, and is enjoyed widely within 3 months of the roast date as the oxidation is a slow, gradual process.

To ensure you get the best of the best, any coffees past the 5 week roast date will be clearly indicated and sold at an automatic discount to you! Please ensure you select the roast date variety that feels right to you.
