Learn from the Best: Direct Mentorship from Kenya’s Top Coffee Professionals

​Excellence is infectious, and at Barista Mtaani—the community-focused initiative of the Kenya Coffee School (KCS)—our students learn directly from the best in the industry. Our instructor pool is not just experienced; it’s composed of leading coffee consultants, certified Q-Graders, and, most notably, National Barista and Roasting Champions.

​This is a critical difference-maker in your training journey. Learning from a champion means:

  • Competition-Grade Technique: You are taught the most refined, efficient, and technically perfect methods for espresso extraction, milk frothing, and latte art—the skills that win global competitions.
  • Mastery over Speed: Our focus is on mastery, not just participation. Training emphasizes workflow, speed under pressure, and consistency, preparing you for the demands of a high-volume, specialty café.
  • Insider Industry Knowledge: Our trainers have a direct link to the pulse of the Kenyan and international coffee scene, offering invaluable advice on sourcing, employment opportunities, and industry trends.

​The hands-on environment of Barista Mtaani’s pop-up sessions and KCS’s main labs ensures that the champions’ knowledge is transferred through direct mentorship and repetition. We don’t just lecture; we coach you until you achieve perfection.

​If your goal is to be a leader in the coffee industry, whether in your local mtaani or on a global stage, you must train with those who have already reached the pinnacle.

​Elevate your game. Train with the champions at Kenya Coffee School and Barista Mtaani.
