Waste of Money
They charge you 200/- per person and show you nothing worth 200/-.
No processing, no plantation with fruits. Only a few coffee plants with coffee on them.
I have never been to a place worse than this.

Please don't buy any spices from this store. If you want to believe me, then take a picture of the prices of two to three products here and compare it with either HopComs or a store opposite to Ainmaney in Shanti Nagar Mall, Madikeri. You will know how double the price it is. We bought 100 gms of Brahmi powder on the 23 Sept 2023 for 180 Rupees. And the same was sold for 90 rupees in shantinagar mall shop opp to Ainmaney.

are just good at marketing. They basically loot you and try to sell all their products for an expensive price. Even the coffee plantation tour was not of any worth as the guide himself was just talking what he knows, and his face turned pale yellow when we asked him a few generic questions. So yes, if your local auto guide tricks you by taking to this place, make sure you tell him no and go ahead with your own Iteinary.

Opted for a Plantation tour as Auto drive took us here instead of place we have requested may be to location proximity or could be other reason. Staff is very humble but they do not have plantation with varieties which is disappointing. Coffee & Wine demo was good. They should also have to provide shoe that can prevent from leech bite. IMO .. is not worth price
It was nice seeing the plantation with plants such as coffee, cocoa, vanilla, spices etc. They have many wines and chocolates to taste. The price is also reasonable.
Do not go too late in the evening.

We went for a coffee plantation tour here. The tour was good and the coffee they served was also nice. Very refreshing.. atmosphere is also good.
But their product store prices are way too expensive and they fooled us with their products as the products kept in store were old and adulterated while the products they gave us to try were fresh. Even for wine bottles, the same wine bottles you'll easily get anywhere in the city, with better price and quality. In this store, each article was priced extra 300 with below average quality. So if you want to visit here, take the tour only. DO NOY BUY PRODUCTS FROM THEIR STORE. All products are old stock and pricey.

It's really a great place to visit in coorg where we get a lot of insight regarding the coffee plantation and the process involved from harvesting to ready to ship. Best to visit during evening time and it takes 1hr to complete the tour of coffee plantation with the guide.
Entry fee is very high rs 200/- not worth it. Do not buy coffee from here. They gave us to drink coffee and we bought the exact same one from their shop. After making it in home it taste like just mix of spices. No smell of coffee and colour is also brown and not black which they served there.
