Tea, coffee, honey & naturals.
Estate-selected leaf, Indian green coffee, traceable honey and botanical powders — the sector where origin documentation matters most, and where we keep it tightest.
What we can source for you.
This sector groups the products buyers most often ask us to certify: tea, coffee, honey and botanical naturals. Each is bought against a tasted or tested sample, and the shipped lot is matched back to that sample before dispatch.
Teas are selected at auction or directly from estates in Assam, Darjeeling and the Nilgiris, in CTC, orthodox and green grades, with blending to a cup profile you approve. Coffee is supplied as green bean from Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu — washed or natural, screen graded.
Honey is supplied with NMR profiling and antibiotic residue screening where the destination requires it. Botanical powders and extracts — moringa, ashwagandha, turmeric extract — are available in food and cosmetic grades with organic certification on request.
