The living plant
Start with coffee, its growing conditions and the care it needs.
K1 EXPERIENCES
Come closer to Ceylon coffee.
Our Matale experience is taking shape around the coffee plant, the people who grow it, and the journey from farm to pantry. A closer connection to what goes into your everyday cup.
Guided visits by prior confirmation only.
OUR APPROACH
Every cup begins somewhere.
Before coffee reaches your kitchen, it begins with a living plant and the care of the people around it. Our experiences bring that connection into view, with time to notice the place, ask questions and understand where everyday ingredients begin.
MATALE · SRI LANKA
Meet coffee at its source.
Ceylon coffee is the starting point for our Matale experience. Discover the coffee plants and the growing landscape around them, and get to know the journey that connects the farm to your cup.
The surrounding crops, soil and biodiversity give that story its setting. What can be explored on a visit will depend on the season and the work happening on the farm.
FROM FARM TO PANTRY
Follow the story into your cup.
Growing, harvesting, processing, roasting and brewing each shape the coffee we enjoy. The Matale experience is being developed to help make sense of that journey, beginning with the plant and its place.
The coffee journey
Understand how harvesting and processing connect the crop to the beans we recognise.
The everyday cup
See how roasting and brewing carry that story into everyday life.
This is the story behind the experience. Activities and access for each visit will be confirmed in advance.
PLAN YOUR VISIT
Let’s start with an enquiry.
The Matale programme is still being developed. If you’d like to visit, get in touch to ask about availability and what may be possible.
Visits are guided and must be confirmed in advance. We cannot accommodate walk-ins.
Weather, crop cycles and farm work may affect access and activities.
Please follow all safety guidance and respect the working farm.
An enquiry does not confirm a booking.
LOOKING AHEAD
A future lavender experience in Australia.
We’re also exploring an Australian experience centred on lavender. It’s an early idea, with no dates or bookings available yet.
