PRODUCER
This blend brings together coffees from two distinct communities:
Uganda
Since 2017, The Coffee Gardens has been supporting ethical specialty coffee production and transparent connections between farmers and customers. Through collaboration with Falcon, farmers receive training in sustainable agricultural practices, including shade-grown cultivation and improved harvesting techniques.
Ethiopia
The Kotta cooperative is part of the Kata Maduga Union, established in 2016. This union helps twenty local associations better organize the sale and export of their harvests. Kotta cooperative members are smallholders with plots ranging from one to twenty hectares. Because the coffee grows at high altitudes above 2,000 meters, the cherries ripen more slowly, gaining their characteristic density and sweetness.
PROCESSING
Both processes ensure clarity and complexity of flavor.
Uganda
Fresh cherries were pulped and fermented for 20 hours in plastic tanks without water. They were then thoroughly rinsed with cool mountain spring water, dried on African beds within solar dryers, and subsequently sorted in 12 stages.
Ethiopia
After harvest, farmers deliver the cherries to the washing station, where the process begins by removing the skin and part of the pulp. The coffee is then left to ferment for 12 hours to break down the remaining sugars on the bean’s surface. Afterward, it is mechanically cleaned and moved to raised African beds, where the beans dry for 6 to 7 days. This quick and controlled washed process helps maintain a clean and bright flavor in the coffee.
VARIETY
Uganda
The SL14, SL28, and Nyasaland varieties create a unique flavor combination. SL14, a Ugandan classic, brings subtle citrus notes and a light tea-like body with excellent disease resistance. SL28, a legendary Kenyan variety, is prized for its intense fruitiness, sweetness, and notes of blackcurrant. Nyasaland, a historic Arabica from Malawi, adds delicate floral and tea notes with a light citrus sweetness.
Ethiopia
In this coffee, you will find a mix of original Ethiopian varieties, collectively known as Heirloom. These are coffee trees that have evolved naturally in the region over centuries. In the cup, they manifest a typical floral and herbal aroma with a light body, exactly what we expect from a quality Ethiopian coffee.

Why Uganda Matters
Zebigi isn’t just another specialty coffee. It’s part of a bigger story that we’ve poured a piece of ourselves into. A year ago, we had the chance to be right there in Uganda – to meet the farmers who grow the coffee, to see the process from harvest to drying. And that’s when we realized we wanted to do even more.
Together with The Coffee Gardens, we co-financed the opening of a QC Lab in Uganda. This quality control laboratory enables farmers to evaluate their harvest directly on site, refine their practices, and, as a result, achieve fairer prices.
Every cup of Zebigi is not only about flavor, but also about the future. About giving farmers the tools and knowledge that open doors to better conditions and stability. And that’s exactly why we love returning to Uganda.🤎

Why Inza Matters
Inza isn’t just another coffee – it’s a story of resilience and connection. This year, our “dad” Petr traveled there, and even though local unrest nearly kept him from reaching the region, he eventually met the people behind this coffee.
High in the mountains of Cauca, smallholder farmers grow coffee on steep slopes, most of the work done by hand. Their dedication to quality shines through in every cup. For us, Inza is a reminder of their commitment and the strong community that makes Colombian coffee so special. 🤎
