7000Steps Coffee

7000 Steps is a Shillong-based specialty coffee venture focused on bringing the emerging coffee landscapes of Northeast India to a wider audience through direct, small-scale sourcing and careful roasting. The brand works with more than 200 farming families across the region, building long-term relationships that support fair pricing, transparent supply chains and sustainable cultivation practices. In contrast to large estates common in southern India, its coffees come from a network of small farms shaped by diverse microclimates, and the roasting approach is designed to preserve the distinct character created by variations in altitude, rainfall and soil within short geographic distances. The portfolio includes microlots, single origins and regional blends, with an emphasis on freshness and seasonal expression. Positioned as a farm-linked, origin-focused operation, 7000 Steps highlights the cultural and agricultural story of the Seven Sister states while offering curated coffees that reflect the diversity and growing potential of Northeast Indian coffee.
