Kirenge Gold

In the heart of Kenya, during the transformative 1950s, a story of resilience and honor began to take root.  Amid the Mau Mau uprising, the British colonial government imposed restrictive land reforms limiting coffee farmers to grow only 100 bushes each. This strict system ensured that coffee remained under colonial control, symbolizing the challenges of the time.

It was during this era that Kirenge Farm was established, embodying the spirit of integrity and perseverance. Legend has it that our farm's founder discovered that he was erroneously given 105 coffee bushes instead of the allowed 100. He faced a moral decision. Instead of exploiting the mistake, he chose to uproot the five extra bushes – an act of honesty that would shape our farm’s legacy for generations to come.

This unwavering commitment to doing what is right is the essence of Kirenge Gold. Passed down through generations, our farm’s dedication to ethical practices and sustainable cultivation has made Kirenge Gold coffee a symbol of excellence. Each bean is hand-picked by our own family members whose expertise spans over a century, enriched by the fertile volcanic soils of our homeland in Kenya’s county of Kiambu.

Kirenge Gold is more than a family-owned coffee estate; it is a celebration of tradition, a commitment to quality, and a promise of authenticity. From our family farm to your cup, we invite you to taste the richness of our heritage and the boldness of our values.
