The 1997 Renegade Blend Backstory

In 1997 the world reached a moment of rare unity. Nations gathered in Kyoto to confront a growing global threat and to commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It was a turning point, a declaration that the future of the planet mattered.

Long before sustainability became a global movement, The Nairobi Coffee and Tea Company had already embraced a clean and green philosophy. Farmers were treated as family. The land was respected. By the time the world met in Kyoto, our own commitment to ethical coffee was already decades old.

The Renegade Blend was created to honour that historic moment. It is bold, spirited, and crafted from exceptional coffees chosen for clarity, brightness, and natural vitality. It celebrates those who challenge convention and believe progress is possible when conscience and craftsmanship work hand in hand.

With every cup you taste the energy of 1997, a year when the world dared to change course. The Renegade Blend is modern, vibrant, and unmistakably alive.
