Kanelite Estate

This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

Kanelite Estate is a second-generation family-owned farm located in Embu County, Kenya. It is currently managed by the husband and wife team of Irene Njagi and Nelson Muchiri.

Innovations

The estate focuses on careful processing and community well-being. A 2022 Counter Culture Seeds grant supported worker housing, nursing space and childcare facilities.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
