Kaapi poovu means coffee flower, and we call it KAAPO. From our estate in Wayanad to your morning cup: honest coffee, grown and sun-dried on our own slope. Forest honey and pepper are coming soon.
Chapter 1 · Grow
Nine months on the branch
It starts with the blossom showers in March, when the kaapi poovu opens and the plantation smells like jasmine. By December the cherries are deep red, and we pick them by hand.

Three harvests from one forest
Coffee grows in the shade of silver oaks. Pepper vines climb those same trees, and bees work the forest around them. Coffee comes first; honey and pepper are coming soon.
