The name ‘White Hills’ is derived from the fact that the area is constantly enveloped in a hanging mist. The magnificent mountain range is home to the Attikan Estate, which is 120 years old and played a crucial role in the development of coffee production in the region. The pioneer responsible for transforming the shrubland into a ‘coffee belt’ at Attikan Estate was Mr Randolph Hayton Morris, who arrived in the Hills in 1888, ignoring those who discouraged him from pursuing his mission. Despite the objections of his critics, Mr Morris persisted in his efforts to cultivate the area, which was said to be home to dangerous wildlife and devoid of any human presence. Due to his unwavering dedication, determination, and bravery in standing by his beliefs, Attikan is now not only a premier producer of specialty coffee, but it is also beautifully connected to its natural surroundings, thanks to its proximity to a wildlife sanctuary. The name ‘Veer Attikan’ comes from the word ‘Veer’ which means valour, courage and strength—all the things exhibited by Mr Randolph Morris when turning shrubland into a ‘coffee belt’. Since 2012, Five Senses has worked directly with Veer Attikan Estate, cultivating a long-standing and trustworthy coffee alliance. The cupping performance from this estate has consistently redefined Indian cup profiles.
