About the Farm

Koraput A-1 Coffee is one of the oldest and most established estates in Odisha, with a history stretching back over three decades. The estate's scale and infrastructure enable comprehensive lot separation across varieties and processing methods, making it a key supplier for export buyers seeking consistency and volume.

The Story Behind the Farm

Established before Odisha coffee had any formal identity, Koraput A-1 helped build the foundation of the region's reputation. The current management — third generation in the same family — has modernised the processing facility while maintaining the estate's commitment to shade-grown, chemical-free cultivation.

Processing Methods

Washed

Cherry pulp is mechanically removed before fermentation in water tanks (18–36 hours). The parchment is then thoroughly washed and dried on raised beds for 12–18 days. Produces clean, bright, terroir-transparent cups.

Natural

Whole cherries are dried on raised beds for 25–35 days with regular turning to ensure even drying. The fruit remains in contact with the bean throughout, imparting rich fruit sweetness and body.

Honey

Cherry pulp is removed but mucilage is retained on the parchment during drying (10–18 days). This bridges washed clarity with natural sweetness, producing honeyed, caramel-forward cups.
