Description
Mahango is at 1800 masl in the foothills of the Rwenzoris, with many farmers living and growing coffee well above this height. Agri Evolve established a buying centre here for the local farmers.
Farmers typically have between 1 and 2 acres of land and coffee is their main cash crop.
Ripe, red coffee cherries are harvested daily during the harvest season and taken to the buying centre. The cherries are weighed, assessed for quality and the farmers are paid in cash. From here
trucks carry the cherries to our Coffee Station at Nyabirongo. The cherries are floated and graded before being sun-dried. Our teams turn the cherries several times each day to ensure even drying whilst allowing the cherries to mature and develop their full rich flavours.
Final processing, cleaning, grading, including colour sorting take place in our modern dry mill built in 2022.
