Coffee

The Ceylon Coffee era dawned around 1780 when it was started by the Dutch and then followed by the British. However, in 1869 the first recorded epidemic of coffee rust (caused by a fungus) broke out, and the blight brought massive devastation to the flourishing coffee plantations. By the mid 1990s an amazing story of revival was observed as it seemed that the coffee rust was largely under control and its resurgence started brewing Sri Lanka’s coffee culture. Nuwara Eliya and its surrounding countryside receive steady rainfall throughout the year and is the perfect terroir for the cultivation of coffee.

Our coffee is produced at an elevation of 4200ft to 5000ft above sea-level from Tillicoultry estate, which was established in 1870 and located in Lindula, Nuwara Eliya district. We process our coffee in a sustainable manner and consistently roast the coffee properly to provide a fine brew of coffee. A symphony of 100% high quality Arabic beans sourced from our estates offer a sweet delicate aroma and a sophisticated flavour with each sip.
