Mr. Patre K Shivappaiya, grandfather of Mr. Ashok Patre planted this farm at the beginning of the 20th Century. Today his legacy is well looked after by his grandson Mr. Ashok Patre, making Ratnagiri Estate one of the top of the line coffee farms in India producing some of the finest Indian Specialty Coffee.

Introducing – Sequential Washed Coffee from Ratnagiri Estate. The method of processing is very important as well as unique, giving us a very balanced and clean cup! The green coffee beans, once depulped are fermented for 12hours. The unique element of this process is that after the initial fermentation the beans are washed before another round of fermentation process resulting to a very clean cup!
Ratnagiri literally means Pearl Mountains, and the silver oaks that tower over the richly flavoured shade grown coffee give the hills a silvery hue explaining their name.
