Pack Size – 200 gms

Passed on by the Britishers and now run by the third generation of coffee planters, this 250-acre plantation is known to farm absolutely naturally.

It’s a self-sustaining farm with no external fertilizers or pesticides used to grow yield. They also grow nutmeg, cacao, citrus fruits, and jackfruit at the plantation.

They also have a lake within the plantation that suffices the requirement of water for the entire plantation.

The crops are independent of external fertilizers or pesticides. This helps provide the right nutrition to the plant and in turn the coffee cherry.
