It began on the lush green slopes of Mount Elgon of western Kenya, where morning mists cling to the trees and the soil is dark, volcanic, and alive. This is where the Gummerus family planted their first coffee trees—not in pursuit of a trend, but in search of something deeper. For Gloria, born and raised on a Kenyan farm, coffee was always more than a crop. It was memory. It was ritual. It was the aroma of home.

Years later, that call was answered hand in hand with Jarmo, a Finnish engineer turned farmer who believed that farming could be something more. Together, they founded Sakami Farm, built not just to produce coffee, but to make a difference. From that foundation, Kigeni Sakami was born—the next chapter, written by the next generation.
