Our
Coffee's
Origin
Zesui Coffee finds its roots in the high-altitude landscapes of Zesui hilltop, Bulago, Bukyabo, and Butandiga. Amidst these terrains, local farmers nurture our coffee beans, harvested and transported to the Kalaamugosi rural collection center in Kiboko – often with donkeys or on the backs of women and youth. The journey continues as beans move to the Busiita central processing unit via dedicated motorcycle transport. With meticulous care, we process the coffee to achieve optimal moisture content. Only then, meeting our quality standards, the coffee proceeds to its final destination in Mbale.
