Farmers & Origins — Four Regions of the Western Ghats

Coffee Origins

Four regions of the Western Ghats

Every bag traces back to a specific origin — not a blend of anonymous lots, but a place with a name, an altitude and a farmer behind it.

900–1500m

Western Ghats, Karnataka

The birthplace of Indian coffee — high-altitude estates producing bright, full-bodied Arabica shaded under native rainforest canopy.

900–1700m

Western Ghats, Karnataka

Misty hill estates known for balanced, aromatic Arabica and Robusta grown alongside pepper and cardamom in a biodiverse canopy.

600–1500m

Western Ghats, Kerala

Smallholder farms across Kerala's high ranges contributing distinct, spice-forward notes shaped by the region's intercropping traditions.

700–2100m

Western Ghats, Kerala

Cool, forested plateau producing rich, full-bodied Robusta with deep, earthy character.

Farmer First

We buy direct, pay fairly and stay close to the farms. Here are a few of the growers we work with season after season.

Thandigudi Estate · Chikmagalur

“Good coffee starts with a healthy forest, not just a healthy tree.”

Kadamane Hills · Coorg (Kodagu)

“We grow coffee the way our grandparents did — alongside pepper, alongside cardamom, alongside each other.”

Chembra Slopes · Wayanad

“Robusta gets a bad name. Grown right, at this altitude, it earns its place in any cup.”

Wayanad Hills Cooperative · Kerala Highlands

“On our own, we were price takers. Together, we set the standard.”
