About Kuttinkhan Estate
The Kuttinkhan Estate deserves special mention for becoming the first of our estates to be Rainforest Alliance certified.
A visit to this estate is an experience in permaculture – fine arabicas, pepper, turmeric,
oranges, and lemons grow in harmony alongside a canopy of native Ficus trees, some of which are nearly 100 years old. The fallen leaves of the trees create a natural mulch in the soil, keeping the organic matter in the soil enriched.
First established in the late 1800s, this estate was acquired by Kelachandra Coffee in 2017 and has since undergone replantation with the Chandragiri varietal, a prime Arabica coffee.
