Ratnagiri Estate, India

PARTNERS: Osito
HISTORY: First year of purchasing

View Transparency Report (PDF)

For nearly a century, the Patre family has stewarded Ratnagiri Estate, producing specialty coffee and fine pepper. Ashok Patre, the third generation to work the land alongside his wife, Divya, is securing the farm’s future by making it one of the most impressive operations we’ve seen—not just in India, but globally. Mr. Patre’s processing methods are both intentional and impressive. He understands that Indian terroir and varieties can only produce specialty coffee of a particular character. Consequently, he has developed processing methods that create something unique and exceptional.

This coffee is naturally processed and underwent anaerobic fermentation in custom-made bioreactors for 36 hours with lab-isolated microbes before drying on raised beds for 25 days. While this approach can sometimes result in “over-processed” or unclean coffees, many of Mr. Patre’s lots are clean, complex, and distinctive. Through constant research and scientifically grounded practices, he’s able to guide fermentations with remarkable precision. Over the past year, he’s collaborated with a renowned food scientist to design a bespoke line of processing equipment. In his facility, nearly every aspect of fermentation is under control. He’s also assembled a small team of professionals, including two microbiologists. Each fermentation is carefully tracked, from microbial plating to titratable acidity measurements that guide decisions about when to finish a batch. Mr. Patre is helping push specialty coffee into the realm of true food science, drawing close parallels to beer or wine fermentation.

Transparency

2018 marked a statement of intent for us, to ensure that people growing exceptional coffee are still doing so in decades to come. 

We started publishing the price we pay to producers exposing the traceability they deserve and discerning drinkers' demand as the new norm. We refer to the most direct payment as ‘Farmgate’.

We’re proud we can publish this for our single origins and house blends.

Seven Seeds has been involved with the Speciality Coffee Transaction Guide as data donors for the past five years. We have signed 'The Pledge', a commitment to transparency in coffee trading.

Roasting and Shipping

We roast our coffee from Monday to Friday, but not every type each day. We aim to ship orders within 1-2 business days.

Roasted coffee reaches it's peak 5-14 days after roasting and stays fresh for up to 30 days. We may send coffee roasted a few days earlier.

The Roastery and Head Office are closed on weekends and public holidays; we do not roast or ship these days.

Thanks for understanding and happy brewing!
