SINGLE ORIGIN
Specialty, Reimagined
One single-origin bean from Bugisu — crafted into five distinct rituals.
Our Story
A Legacy Rooted in 1955
Carico began when we organized the first small cooperative farms in the Bugisu region of Eastern Uganda — high on the slopes of Mount Elgon.
The families from those founding communities still cultivate every Carico bean today, tending the land their grandparents farmed.
TRUE PARTNERSHIP
Farmer-Owned, Always
We produce our coffee in harmony with the local ecosystem, and the farmers who grow it are 50% partners — profiting directly from every bag sold.
Naturally farmed, inter-cropped, and grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides, preserving the biodiversity of the Bugisu landscape.
The Experience
Specialty In Every Cup
A cupping score of 86 means one wonderful thing:superb flavor.Our single-origin Bugisu Arabica is smooth yet bold, carrying hints of the pristine highlands where it is grown.
