Every D2C coffee brand pitches how they have the best coffee everywhere they go, we at Kattinmane simply say ‘Come visit our establishment , our passion and standards speaks for itself’ we hide away in the shadows much like the Bisons, Peacocks and Monkeys that co-exist together on our property in harmony much like our mixed crops like Peppercorns , Fruit trees , Coconut & Arecanut trees that thrive in harmony along with our meticulously nurtured robusta coffee bushes.

The high caffeine content and bold, bitter taste of Robusta beans have made it a more preferable choice for Instant coffee, and India is predominantly an instant coffee consumer. It’s also an ideal companion for milk-based espresso drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.

We at Kattinmane want to make India sip on its locally produced pure and rich coffee that is usually exported to European countries. We want to be the reason good coffee stays inside our borders and the aroma of freshly brewed robusta fills the homes even to the north of the coffee belt of our country which typically consider ‘Tea’ as their go to caffeinated beverage of choice.

We, the owners at Kattinmane are 4th generation passionate planters who follow age old tried and tested growing methods while also keeping up with the times by adopting new technologies and specialty driven processes involved in ensuring you sip the most characteristic cup of specialty robusta coffee.
