LV—UGA, Lake Victoria Uganda

Grade A Cured Vanilla Pods

LV-UGA originates from the Lake Victoria basin across central Uganda, where the surrounding lake system creates stable humidity and supports slower, fuller flavour development. Harvested during the peak season, this expression represents a classic and enveloping vanilla profile.

This expression is poised and luminous, balancing cocoa silk with gentle sweetness. Dried apricot and pale brown sugar lift into delicate clove and finish with clean, airy woods. Elegant and structured, KY-UGA offers a quieter interpretation of Ugandan vanilla.
