Our farms are forests

Grown in Coorg. Roasted in Vancouver.

Since 1805, our family has grown coffee in the Sacred Groves of Coorg, beneath native forest canopy alongside pepper vines, fruit trees, tigers, elephants and peacocks. We roast every bag in Vancouver and pour it in Vancouver cafes. Every bag protects forests and supports fair trade farmers.
