3 Days sipi falls tours and coffee

About this activity

Are you a good coffee drinker or want to know more about how coffee is roasted, grounded and brewed? Coffee is one of the main cash crops grown on the slopes of Mount Elgon. Coffee was discovered in Ethiopia by a goat who always admired the sweet sap of the coffee juice inside the coffee skin. After its discovery, people started eating the fruits mainly during famine and leisure not until the coming of missionaries and the Indian merchants who introduced the commercialization of coffee. The missionaries used to normally send coffee to their relatives as gifts.

Coffee tour experience done in the village setting gives you a great taste of a true finest Ugandan coffee made by you in an organic process which involves pounding dry coffee beans using a wooden mortar to remove the husks and later roast them in fire using a dry saucepan with little firewood. We do have different options of making coffee. We have red honey coffee, yellow honey coffee, natural coffee and semi washed coffee.
