Fathima Coffee Works · Kodaikanal · Since 1963
Freshly roasted in the hills. Ground in-house. Carried home in memory.
Our story
Founded in 1963 as Fathima Coffee Works, we became FACO® — a name shorthand for decades of roasting and grinding fresh, in-house, every day.
The aroma greets you before the door does. For generations of locals and travellers, a stop at FACO is a Kodaikanal ritual: small shop, big legacy.
From bean to cup
Hand-picked Arabica & Robusta cherries from organic estates around Kodaikanal.
Roasted fresh in-house — small batches, watched by eye, stopped at the perfect crack.
Ground to order. Filter, espresso, French press — your brew, your grain.
Decoction drips through the filter; a frothy arc lands in the dabara. Pure South India.
The brew
Our signature filter coffee powder is built for the brass tumbler at home. A slow drip, a splash of frothed milk, and a long pour between dabara and tumbler — the ritual is the recipe.
Our coffee
No cart, no checkout — just tap a size and we'll open WhatsApp with your order ready to send.
