The 40-member Miale-Tubana Mixed Cooperative in Uganda is committed to preserving the endangered Nyasaland coffee variety.
This year's harvest was described as clean, with plenty of body, sweetness, some acidity and notes of cassis, panela and black tea, and achieved a cupping score between 84 and 85.
Slow Food: The collective is part of the global Slow Food movement. This movement promotes regional biodiversity, extensive agriculture and traditional food crafts. The Miale Tubana farmers, organized as a Slow Food Presidio, want to preserve the endangered Nyasaland coffee variety that is at home in their gardens. To support this, the farmers have been regularly visited by the Slow Food organization, various agronomists, botanists and coffee roasters since 2015. Since 2021, the farmers have been part of the Slow Food Coffee Coalition, in which they have agreed to share values with other like-minded coffee cooperatives from the region, to develop further and to exchange ideas during mutual visits.
