About This Coffee

Nafuna is a Ugandan coffee from Bukyabo on the slopes of Mount Elgon, grown at 1,800–2,000 meters above sea level. It is a blend of SL14 and SL28 varietals, processed using a washed cherry method. The coffee is fermented with a portion of cherry pulp to enhance fruitiness, then dried slowly on raised beds. Flavor notes include Nectarine, Red Apple, Vanilla, and Lime, with subtle tea-like and brown sugar undertones.

Kima Coffee

Rabi Aouam trained as a barista starting in 2010, won the Andalusian Barista Championship in 2014, and began roasting commercially in 2018 without a fixed space. By 2021 he had a roastery and tasting room in the center of Malaga, and the operation quickly gained momentum. Kima was named Best Specialty Coffee of Spain in 2024 and ranked in the top 100 coffee destinations worldwide by Neodrinks in 2025. Rabi works exclusively with 100% Arabica specialty coffee, hand roasting each batch and selecting from a wide range of origins that includes rare varietals like Geisha from Colombia and Wild Orchid Liberica from Vietnam. An in house academy trains professionals from the hospitality sector, with baristas traveling to Malaga specifically for the courses. The philosophy is direct: flavor, traceability, zero artifice.
