Kenyan coffee has long been celebrated as one of the finest in the world. Grown on the fertile, volcanic soils of Mount Kenya at high elevations, each bean develops an unmatched clarity and vibrancy. At Café Nairobi, we honor that heritage by sourcing single-origin Arabica coffee directly from small-scale farmers we know by name. These farmers hand-pick every cherry, ensuring quality, fairness, and sustainability.
Roasted fresh in Jacksonville, FL, every bag of Café Nairobi delivers not just a cup, but a connection—bridging Kenya’s coffee heritage with today’s growing community of coffee lovers. Whether you enjoy pour-over coffee beans, a bold French press, velvety espresso, or cold brew coffee beans, you’ll find a roast tailored to your taste.
