Mwiboini AA

On the slopes of Mt. Kenya, near the town of Kanjuu, and in the heart of Kirinyaga County - we find Mwiboini Estate. And the heart of Mwiboni Estate is in its owner, manager, and more - Michael Gichangi.

Mr. Gichangi grew up on a coffee farm, got a government job, then retired back to coffee by founding Mwiboini Estate. The goal was to focus solely on quality, to only hire from the community, and to only sell through direct export channels. Along the way Gichangi brought on agronomists, took Q classes, and started networking with roasters in Europe, Australia and across Asia. He’s built, expanded and improved upon his pulper and drying beds, directly overseeing daily processing so as to put into practice his ongoing education. An education in quality inevitably includes drinking your own coffee, and towards that end Gichangi has started a local roasted brand to spread the love within his community.
