About Imbari Coffee

Coffee Rooted in African Excellence

Imbari Coffee was founded to reshape the global perception of African coffee. While Uganda produces some of the world’s finest Arabicas and Robustas, many farmers remain locked out of global markets. We built Imbari Coffee to change that narrative permanently.

The Regions That Define Us

🌄 Mt. Elgon — Bugisu Arabica

High-altitude Arabica grown on volcanic soils, hand-picked and traditionally sun-dried.

Notes: floral, citrus, chocolate, winey acidity.

🏔️ Rwenzori Mountains — Fine Robusta

Uganda’s legendary strong, clean Robusta known for crema, strength, and body.

🌱 Victoria Basin — Microlot Farms

Experimental washing stations and microlots enabling traceable, unique profiles that respond to the needs of specialty buyers.
