Origin and processing
The Coffee Yard is a new partner of The Coffee Gardens, who have a long-standing relationship with Norman Mukuru and support the export of his coffee to the UK and EU through Falcon Specialty. The relationship is built on shared processing know-how and farmer traceability, which now enables direct export.
Norman established The Coffee Yard as a large buying and drying centre in the foothills of Mount Elgon. He buys coffee from Sironko, Mbale, Bulambuli and Kapchorwa. He has been in the business for almost 20 years and since 2018 has focused on natural processing, which he has continually refined to suit desired flavour profiles.
The Coffee Gardens was established in 2017 with the aim of producing ethically sourced coffee and creating a transparent connection between farmers and buyers. In 2022, it moved the washing station to a new location to increase capacity. The project focuses on increasing farmers' incomes, promoting employment, gender equality, environmental protection and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) training. Of course, there are premiums, seedling distribution, training and a fully transparent purchasing system with contracts, SMS price information and confirmation of every transaction.
Varieties
SL14 - selected in Kenya in the 1930s by Scott Agricultural Laboratories from a tree designated D.R. II. It is known for its good drought tolerance and genetically belongs to the Typica group. It is important in both Kenya and Uganda.
SL34 - also native to Kenya, valued for its full body and strong acidity. However, it is susceptible to disease (coffee rust, coffee berry disease) and therefore requires rigorous protection. It belongs to the Typica genetic group.
Nyasaland (Bugisu) - an old variety of Arabica from the Typica line, originally imported from Jamaica to Malawi (then Nyasaland) in 1878. It was later spread to Uganda. Today it is enjoying a renaissance on the slopes of Mount Elgon, where it is important for smallholders.

After harvesting, the cherries are fermented for 24-48 hours, then dried for a minimum of 21 days on African raised beds and tarpaulins until they reach optimum moisture content.

- Espresso: dose 18-20 g, yield ~36-40 g (1:2), time 25-30 s, temperature around 92-94 °C. Adjust grind to taste to accentuate sweetness or acidity.
- French press / AeroPress: coarser grind, for French press 1:15-1:12 ratio, leaching 4 min; for AeroPress try short intense extractions for more body.
