The Joseph Coffee Curing Works

We've been here in Pattiveeranpatti for a long time now. Our address is 15/2/133, Kamaraja Thidal, right near the Kamaraja Statue. Most people around here know exactly where we are because of the smell of the beans. Dealing with coffee is what we do every single day. It is dusty work, especially during the peak season, but that is just the nature of curing. We take the raw beans, process them, and get them ready for the next stage. It isn't a fancy setup. There is quite a bit of heavy machinery involved, and we always have to keep a close eye on everything to make sure the beans don’t get ruined by the heat or moisture. Some days are much busier than others. It really depends on the harvest. If you come by the works, you will see bags piled up high. We are just off the main road, which makes it easy for the trucks to come in. The local weather affects how fast we can get things dried out. My father used to tell me that the smell of coffee stays in your skin forever, and I think he was right. We don't have a big corporate office or a lobby. It’s just the worksite where the real labor happens. We stick to our daily routine. Handling coffee is tricky, but we have the space and the right equipment to manage it. It is a local operation through and through.
