Roasting Day at a Bugisu Coffee Farm

from Uganda Travel Podcast with Daniel Okello · host Daniel Okello

Daniel spends his sixth day in Mbale tracing the coffee journey from bean to cup — but this time he's not just tasting it. He gets his hands into the harvest on a Bugisu Arabica farm on Mount Elgon's western slopes, watches a roast, and reflects on what a cup of coffee actually costs the people who grow it. Plus: a quiet evening at The Rooftop and the Imbalu drums that never quite stop. ☕ Enjoying the show?
