Kups from Kenya

Laban Njuguna brings the world together with a cup of excellence.

Ben McDougal is the Regional Rep for 1 Million Cups and was on a community visit to celebrate the launch of 1 Million Cups Grand Island in Nebraska. This episode within our “In The Wild” category features an experienced coffee maker and international bridge builder. Laban and his team at Zabuni are brewing a large selection of specialty coffees from Kenya.

Ben shares a caffeanited invitation to 1 Million Cups, then narrates Reluctance in the break. We then teleport back into an IRL and impromptu, but fantastic chat from within Nebraska. Do you know how coffee goes from the earth into your morning mug? Perhaps coffee is addicted to us, haha, so let’s have some fast sailing around the coffee industry’s global supply chain. The cherry on top is a closing chat on global collaboration. Stay wild and let’s keep building.
