Discover A Story In Every Cup

OUR STORY

At Mulinga Coffee Estate, our story is connected by three generations, each dedicated to bringing out the best of our land.

Since the 1970s, we've dedicated ourselves to nurturing our 150-acre estate in the Cherengani Hills. Here, fertile soils and cool highland climate create the perfect conditions for cultivating exceptional Arabica coffee.

At Mulinga, we invest in sustainable farming, in the wellbeing of our workers, and in partnerships that celebrate Kenya’s heritage of exceptional coffee. Each cup from Mulinga tells a story, because for us, coffee is not just a crop, it is a connection.

FAQs

Where is Mulinga Coffee Estate Located?

We are based in Kitale, Trans-Nzoia County, in Kenya’s highlands. The area is located at the base of Mount Elgon (on the Kenyan side), where volcanic soils and high altitude create ideal growing conditions for speciality coffee.

What coffee varieties do you grow?

We grow Arabica coffee, primarily SL28, Ruiru 11, and Batian varieties.

How is your coffee processed?

Our cherries are carefully handpicked, fully washed, fermented, and dried on raised beds under the sun. This traditional method preserves clarity and enhances the vibrant flavors in the cup.

When do you harvest the coffee?

Our main harvest runs from October to December, with a smaller fly crop between May and July. Each harvest is carefully managed to ensure uniform ripeness and consistent quality.

Is your coffee internationally compliant?

Yes. Every lot is fully documented and traceable from plot to port. We will be EUDR compliant by December 2025.
