Located approximately 3 km from Kiambu town and 13 km north of Nairobi, the estate sits at 1,725 meters above sea level. Its deep, well-drained red volcanic soils, specifically Nitisols and Andosols, are highly fertile and well suited to coffee production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe climate is generally cool, with especially cold and wet conditions between May and July. These conditions slow cherry development and extend the maturation period, helping enhance cup quality. The estate cultivates two Arabica varieties: SL34 and Ruiru 11. Over a five-year average, production reaches approximately 157 tons. Around 20% of the harvest is classified as early crop, picked from April to August, while the remaining 80% is harvested as late crop between October and December.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProcessing begins with handpicked ripe red cherries, which are pulped on the day of harvest. The coffee undergoes full fermentation and washing before being thoroughly dried and stored in well-ventilated bins. To manage environmental impact, the estate operates an efficient water recirculation system made up of 16 lagoons in series, designed to purify wastewater from the pulping process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate’s natural forest ecosystem remains well preserved, supporting a rich diversity of flora and fauna across terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Farmers are encouraged to protect indigenous species, and the area is home to wildlife including snakes, deer, hares, weaverbirds, owls, and hawks. Native plant species such as fig, cordia, croton, and neem trees thrive throughout the property.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Color Coffee Roasters | Premium Roasters in Colorado","offers":[{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":49440830029962,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Home Espresso","offer_id":49440830062730,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Stove Top","offer_id":49440830095498,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Aeropress","offer_id":49440830128266,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Fine Drip","offer_id":49440830161034,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ French Press","offer_id":49440830193802,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Coarse Drip","offer_id":49440830226570,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 OZ. \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":49440830259338,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":49440830292106,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Home Espresso","offer_id":49440830324874,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Stove Top","offer_id":49440830357642,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Aeropress","offer_id":49440830390410,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Fine Drip","offer_id":49440830423178,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ French Press","offer_id":49440830455946,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Coarse Drip","offer_id":49440830488714,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 LBS. \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":49440830521482,"sku":null,"price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":49440830554250,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Home Espresso","offer_id":49440830587018,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Stove Top","offer_id":49440830619786,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Aeropress","offer_id":49440830652554,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Fine Drip","offer_id":49440830685322,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ French Press","offer_id":49440830718090,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Coarse Drip","offer_id":49440830750858,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 LBS. \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":49440830783626,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/8024\/files\/Ibonia_Estate_1.png?v=1779847796","url":"https:\/\/colorroasters.com\/products\/kenya-ibonia-estate-aa","provider":"Color Coffee | Restoring Clarity to Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
