At Siruvani Group Estates, we’ve been growing coffee, tea, cardamom, and pepper for over 80 years. We’re anchored by the traditions of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, and we’ve always believed in staying focused on quality, freshness, and sustainability. While many estates around us have shifted toward mass production, we’ve chosen a different path. We remain a small estate, committed to doing things the right way, even if it means taking the longer route.


We know our land intimately. Each of our four divisions is managed by experienced planters who understand the unique characteristics of the terrain, climate, and elevation. Attention to these details shape the flavor and quality of everything we grow. Whether it’s the delicate notes of our tea or the bold richness of our coffee, our taste is distinctly regional – shaped by the pristine Attapadi hills and tributaries of the Bhavani River. Our crops reflect the elegance and diversity of South India, and our customers can taste that difference.


We believe that part of our responsibility is to protect the natural beauty that surrounds us. We live in harmony with the Nilgiri biosphere, a delicate ecosystem that’s home to countless species. Our estate exists within the sprawling jungle – we do not cut trees for convenience, but instead prune only where needed to regulate sunlight. Hunting and poaching are strictly forbidden on our land. The animals that roam our estate, from elephants and tigers to rare birds, are part of our shared domain, and we consider it our job to protect them.

In conjunction with our attention to our environment, we have placed critical importance on staying loyal to our local community. In turn, our customers have always been our biggest supporters. Many return year after year, not just for the flavor, but because they trust us. We’ve earned awards and glowing feedback over time, but the real reward is hearing our customers agree our quality has remained unchanged through the decades.


While we stay small by choice, we’re not stuck in the past. We’ve introduced modern tools like electric shears to ease the physical demands on our team, built sustainable irrigation systems and while we continue to modernize the machinery in our factory, we still remain committed to orthodox tea processing, preserving the integrity of the tea leaves and maintaining the rich flavors. Through all the change, we’ve held on to what matters most—the care and attention we give to all our crops.


Looking ahead, our mission remains clear. We’re proud to serve our region and continue to be in awe of the land that provides for us year after year. Through our commitment to growing with precision and intention rather than size, we hope to continue offering the same standard of quality and dedication to craftsmanship for generations to come.
