Kagoto represents the heart of The Coffee Gardens' story—many elements, thoughtfully brought together, creating one balanced and memorable experience.

This carefully curated blend combines small, select portions of several microlot coffees, each exceptional on its own. Developed by our Q Grader Donald, Kagoto features coffees processed using cherry ferment, honey, dry ferment, and washed methods, each contributing subtle fruity character and craft to the final cup.

The name Kagoto is inspired by a beloved local Ugandan dish: a one-pot stew where different ingredients come together to create something comforting, balanced, and uniquely delicious. This coffee embodies that same philosophy—diverse components working in harmony.

About The Coffee Gardens

The Coffee Gardens was founded in 2017 by Dana, Micheal, and Shak, who believed specialty coffee could transform lives when rooted in direct relationships with farmers. What began as a small pilot with one farmer family—offering better processing support, training, fair loans, and above-market prices—has grown into a model built around care, collaboration, and quality.

Today, they're proud to bring Uganda's exceptional specialty coffee to international markets while meaningfully improving conditions for the farmers who grow it.
