Rooted in Kenya.
Shared through coffee.
A family’s connection to the land.
A story carried forward in every cup.
Small beginnings.
Lasting roots.
Gibsons began with coffee planted by Gibson on a five-acre family farm in the early 1960s.
Those first Arabica trees included the SL28 and SL34 varieties. The company’s farming story is rooted in the slopes of Mount Kenya—a connection to place that remains central to the brand.
