Bugisu: A Single-Origin Legacy
On the misty slopes of Mt. Elgon, Bugisu coffee tells a story of resilience and pride. Named for the indigenous tribe and their historic fight for control during colonial times, the Bugisu Cooperative Union, formed in 1954, made “Bugisu” synonymous with Uganda’s finest coffee by the 1990s. Though cooperatives waned, the legacy endures through smallholder farmers and Kawacom’s Sipi Falls Coffee Project.
Grown on tiny plots along Mt. Elgon’s western slopes, this single-origin Bugisu is hand-processed with care—cherries pulped in small batches, fermented in buckets, and sun-dried on tarps or mesh screens. Kawacom’s buying offices across Kapchorwa, Bulambuli, and Kween ensure freshness and traceability, blending these beans into a bold, nuanced cup with notes of dark chocolate, berry, and spice.
For buyers, Bugisu offers more than coffee—it’s a connection to a vibrant history and the hardworking farmers of Mt. Elgon.
Savour a story in every sip.

Price Match
We Aim to Match, But Conditions Apply!
We strive to offer the most competitive prices in Australia for all your coffee brewing needs. While we're confident in our pricing, we're human, and occasionally, a competitor might slip a lower price past our radar. That's where you come in! If you spot a better deal elsewhere, we'll gladly match it, with some fair conditions to ensure a level playing field.
Here's the scoop:
- Aussie rivals only: The competitor must be an Australian retailer with prices in AUD and shipping from within our great nation.
- Brand buddies: They must be an authorised retailer of the specific brand you're eyeing.
- Twinsies, please: The product needs to be an exact match, brand new in its box, and readily available.
- Delivery included: We'll factor in the competitor's delivery cost for an apples-to-apples comparison.
Now, for some exceptions, where our price-matching magic might not work:
- Cashback & discounts: We can't match deals involving cashback offers or special discount coupons.
- Bulk buys: Commercial quantity pricing is a different beast, so we won't match those either.
- Clearance frenzy: Stock liquidation sales are temporary deals, and we can't keep up with their ever-changing prices.
- History can't be rewritten: We can't adjust past orders that have already been processed.
- Auction arena: Prices from auction sites like eBay or Catch of the Day aren't eligible.
The rare exception:
In extraordinary situations, we might not be able to match a competitor's price exactly. But don't worry, we'll still offer you the best possible price we can, because your coffee happiness matters to us!
So, there you have it! With these guidelines in mind, feel free to share any lower prices you find, and let's brew up some fair competition!
