Uganda's coffee farmers strike green gold

Coffee is Uganda's number one earning export crop. But until recently, the country's youth have been sidelined from the industry. We meet young entrepreneurs pioneering new ways to profit from one of the world's most popular beverages.

Great idea! Good on them for trying to get a slice of this huge pie! But we have coffee machine at home and I always shop and try different beans! I buy a lot of coffee from Kenya, Rwanda, Peru and East Timor. And we love trying coffee from different countries. Will check the shops for coffee from Uganda next..:-))) I also try to buy Fair Trade coffees..:-)

Those from coffee producing countries: is coffee actually a favorite drink where you're from?

[@Nitka022]

I am from Australia and yes we are huge coffee drinkers here. All our friends and family have coffee machines at home! Our supermarkets carry some o/s brands but we have speciality shops which sell coffee from around the world. As there are 4 ppl in my family we all drink up to 2-3 cups a day! ..:-)) Coffee IS liquid gold...:-)

Actually hear in Uganda coffee is not one of the favourite drinks, tea takes center stage.
