Origin Story
The Ratnagiri Estate is located in the Baba Budan Mountain Range, Karnataka, South West India (Western Ghats). It has built a global reputation for producing some of India’s finest washed Arabica. The estate was established in 1923, handed down over three generations and located in the Baba Budan Mountain Range. This is where it is said the first coffee was planted in India by Bababuda – a pilgrim from Yemen. Shivappaiya Patre first purchased the estate in 1923 and named it the Ratnagiri Estate, inspired by the beautiful mountains. The name translates to Pearl Mountain.
The coffee is intercropped with black pepper and cardamom groves amongst many other native plants and trees providing shade for the coffee and conserving the natural environment. Every care is taken in processing and drying to produce a fine and sought after cup
