The Kipsigis are a Nilotic ethnic group in Kenya, the largest sub-group of the Kalenjin people, primarily residing in Kericho and Bomet Counties in the Rift Valley. They are known for their agricultural practices, cultivating crops like maize and tea, and raising cattle. Their traditional culture includes a system of elders making decisions, and their language, Kipsigis, is closely related to other Kalenjin languages. They also have distinct cultural practices, such as the use of “Mursik,” a traditional fermented milk drink, and their deep connection to the land.
