Mukunga Estate Kenya

About This Coffee

This single-estate coffee is grown by Hanner Wanjiku Mukunga in the Githunguri region of Kiambu, Kenya, at an altitude of 1,800–1,850 meters. The coffee is a blend of SL28 and Ruiru varieties, processed using a washed method that includes a 24-hour fermentation and a 24-hour water soak, followed by 10–18 days of drying on raised beds. It features a flavor profile of red currant, black tea, hibiscus, and lychee, offering a bright and refined character typical of high-altitude Kenyan coffee.

Four Hundred mg

Four Hundred (MG) is an electric specialty coffee roastery based in Hitzkirch, Switzerland, with a coffee corner inside Max Chocolatier in Luzern. The name refers to 400 milligrams, the recommended daily caffeine intake per person, calculated across roughly four cups of coffee. The roastery runs entirely on electric power, reducing its carbon footprint with every batch. Founded by someone with 15 years of experience across specialty coffee, marketing, and creative industries, Four Hundred sources carefully chosen specialty beans and develops each roast to express the coffee's natural characteristics. They roast daily to ensure peak freshness, and their range spans unique blends and single origins for both espresso and filter preparation. The operation is built on a simple conviction: good coffee should be accessible to anyone, without compromising on process or consistency.
