From the producer

Onyx identifies Cahoots Coffee, founded by Benjamin Jenkin, as the project behind this inaugural Ugandan lot. The archived product page does not name an individual contributing farmer.

From the roaster

Onyx Coffee Lab features this coffee as part of their curated lineup, noting its intriguing profile resulting from a unique culture-washed processing method.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This Onyx Advent release documents a culture-washed, inoculated-fermentation approach from an emerging Mount Elgon specialty project while keeping undisclosed farm contributors and lot details explicit.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Primary-source identity check

Matched the coffee to Onyx’s official 2025 Advent listing and corrected the variety to SL34 and the process label to washed.

02
Commerce cleanup

Removed the unsupported $100 stand-alone price and corrected the included Advent portion to 56 grams.

03
Editorial enrichment

Preserved source-backed origin, process context, cup-profile sections, and a two-source qualitative public-sentiment synthesis without inventing a rating.

What was added?

Primary-source variety and process labels, the documented Advent portion size, four editorial sections, and a two-source qualitative internet pulse.

What wasn't added?

No stand-alone retail price, farm, individual grower, altitude, harvest date, drying detail, fermentation duration, or numeric public rating.

Why it matters

Keeps the exact Advent release distinct from related regional coffees and avoids turning qualitative commentary or bundle pricing into coffee-level facts.

What you might taste

Plum, black tea, raisin, orange, with independent accounts emphasizing clean tea structure and stone-fruit or citrus character.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.
