MAGUTA ESTATE, Kenya (Supernatural) – Specialty Coffee

Farm: Maguta Estate

Maguta Estate is a small coffee farm located in the Embu region, at the foothills of Mount Kenya.
The farm is owned and managed by David Maguta Ngibuini, a passionate coffee grower who inherited the land and transformed it into a model of sustainability and quality.

Across two hectares dedicated to coffee cultivation, Maguta Estate grows Arabica varieties that thrive in rich volcanic soils under an ideal climate.
Driven by innovation and perfection, David promotes sustainable farming practices, preserving both the heritage and the future of his farm.

David Maguta Ngibuini

David Maguta Ngibuini is more than a coffee farmer – he is a visionary, fully dedicated to crafting exceptional-quality coffee.
Having grown up on this land, he learned the secrets of agriculture from an early age.

For the Supernatural process, David carefully selects only fully ripe cherries, harvested at their peak sweetness, ensuring a perfectly balanced and expressive flavor.
Through attention to detail and the use of modern processing techniques, he creates coffees that stand out on the international specialty coffee scene.

The Supernatural Process – Complexity and Expressiveness

The Supernatural process applied at Maguta Estate brings extra depth and complexity to the cup.
After harvesting at full ripeness, the cherries undergo a controlled fermentation, which intensifies aromas and develops a unique flavor profile.

The cherries are then dried on raised African beds, a sustainable method that minimizes water use while preserving the fruity and sweet character of the coffee.
The result is a vibrant, aromatic cup that reflects precision, care, and craftsmanship.

Altitude – A Natural Advantage

At 1,750 meters above sea level, Maguta Estate enjoys perfect conditions for cultivating Arabica coffee.
The cooler temperatures at this altitude slow down cherry maturation, allowing for the development of deeper, more complex flavors.
The rich volcanic soil and unique microclimate further contribute to the coffee’s balance, clarity, and distinctive character.

Tasting Notes – Blackcurrant, Cherry & Milk Chocolate

The Supernatural-processed coffee from Maguta Estate delights the senses with a refined and balanced cup profile.
With medium body and moderate acidity, it offers intense notes of blackcurrant and cherry, elegantly complemented by silky milk chocolate sweetness.
The finish is smooth, sweet, and lingering – a testament to the passion and craftsmanship behind every step of production.
