Coorg. Known throughout the world as the 'Coffee Cup of India,' it is a perfect home away from home for the discerning traveller. A lush plantation paradise punctuated by pristine forests, this land has a unique charm that has not been spoilt by man's intrusive hand. Fresh air, captivating sounds of nature, and the heavy fragrance of seasonal coffee blossoms refresh one's senses.

In this Blog on Coorg, we take you on a journey through tropical evergreen forests to a long–gone era of sprawling homesteads. Spiced with a dash of local lore and sprinkled with a colonial legacy, it is a journey of discovery into the heart and soul of a primaeval land.
