Region: Thika, Kiambu Elevation: 1524 masl About: Oreti Estate was founded in 1946 by Peter Harries and his wife, Rowena. They purchased the land five miles above the already famous Chania Estate that sits on the same ridge running down from the Aberdare Mountains. “Oreti” is a Maori word meaning place of great danger and raw beauty, and is also the name of a beach near where Rowena grew up in New Zealand. Today, Oreti is run by Boyce Harries and is one of the last private coffee estates in Kenya managed by the descendants of the original founders. Apart from producing amazing coffee, the Harries family co-founded the Wabeni Technical Institute, which provides local children access to education in technical skills and trades.
