Muthonjo Estate family
The Muthonjo Estate family produces and processes coffee on its own farm near the Mount Kenya forest in Kirinyaga. The estate is managed by brothers Norman, Cyrus, Walter and Patrick Njogu with their families.
Farm: Muthonjo Estate →History
After decades of selling cherry to a cooperative, the family began processing coffee independently in 2000 to improve quality and prices. Muthonjo later joined Kushikamana, a Counter Culture-supported group of independent Mount Kenya farms sharing quality experiments.
