About Tiger Bright Coffee
Named after the natural tiger reserves that border Koraput's coffee-growing zones, Tiger Bright represents the best of what tribal Odisha produces — a single-origin Arabica with distinct regional character.
This premium blend Koraput Coffee comes from the Koraput district of Odisha and is crafted by TDCCOL.
The coffee is grown in hill-based gardens managed by tribal farming communities under the TDCCOL (Tribal Development Cooperative Corporation of Odisha Ltd) ecosystem. It is harvested at full ripeness, washed-processed, and roasted in small batches to a light-medium profile.
This Koraput Arabica Coffee is known for its smooth taste, balanced acidity, and rich aroma.

The Koraput Coffee Growing Region
Koraput district in southern Odisha sits at the edge of the Eastern Ghats, with elevations ranging from 900 to 1,400 metres. The region is home to dense tropical forests, significant biodiversity, and several tribal communities who have cultivated coffee here for decades.
The combination of altitude, forest shade, well-distributed rainfall (1,400–1,600mm annually), and red-laterite soil creates exceptional terroir for Arabica coffee — comparable in quality to renowned Indian origins like Araku Valley and Bababudangiris, but with a distinct Odishan character.
