Ibonia Estate AA, Kenya - Filter

Situated in Kiambu, just north of Nairobi, Ibonia Estate is a long-established coffee farm managed by Sir Charles Njonjo and his family. Spanning more than 100 hectares, the estate cultivates traditional Kenyan varieties SL28 and SL34 at approximately 1,700 metres above sea level.

Despite increasing pressure from urban development in the region, Ibonia remains committed to coffee production and environmental stewardship. Nearly 60% of the estate is preserved as natural forest, creating a unique growing environment that supports both biodiversity and coffee quality.

Following harvest, cherries are selectively hand-picked, sorted and fully washed before being dried slowly on raised beds. A prolonged soaking stage contributes to the clarity and brightness for which Kenyan coffees are renowned.

The result is a structured and expressive cup with vibrant fruit character, lively acidity and floral complexity.
