Copy of Ngamba

Ngamba is a 13-acre farm owned by James Kinyua Kimotho. James inherited the estate from his parents, who established it as a cash-crop farm in the 1960s. He has since invested in the staff and infrastructure needed to improve coffee quality and produce specialty-grade beans.

To help him achieve this, James enlisted the help of the talented and knowledgeable William Mugo Wjiru, who manages the farm. William has over 40 years of experience working with coffee, and he is an expert in coffee processing and fermentation.

Like many farms in the region, Ngamba used to sell its coffee to a local cooperative. Nine years ago, however, James decided to build his own wet mill on-site. While this granted him full oversight and quality control, it was a big risk and financial investment. Happily, the benefits have far outweighed the costs, and Ngamba is now producing exceptionally sweet and clean coffees, like this one!
