Kenyan coffees are revered around the world for their quality and complexity. Some bright and floral, some rich and creamy, and others jammy and full of fruit. Each coffee roaster has a preference—we're picky and want it all in one cup. Bring on all the complexity Kenya has to offer. Every year the coffees from Peris at Muhathi Estate fit this bill and are highly sought after. This year is no exception.
Muhathi is one of three family lots—remember Dagitu?—from an estate that Peris' parents planted in the land reforms that followed the 1952 Mau Mau uprising against British control of stolen farmland, deliberately excluding African participation.
After her father's passing, Peris left her career as a nurse in the UK to return home and care for her ailing mother. Since taking the reins at Muhathi, she has rejuvenated the estate to be one of the highest quality producers of fruit we have seen in Kenya.
