The Kodavas (a local clan in Coorg), are considered to be absolutely the most hospitable people. What makes Coorg as a tourist destination better, is the fact that the Kodavas are markedly different from other cultures. For instance, it is said that attending a Kodava marriage, wherein the ceremony is conducted not by a priest but by the elders of the two families, is considered as an enriching experience. The marriage takes place after the cutting of banana stumps by a representative. Dancing commences on tribal beats and instruments post the feast. The concept of "Kanyadaan" is absent. The Kodavas also happen to be different because of their different dressing style. For instance, the women wear their saris in a different way wherein the pleats are tucked at the back, and the loose end of the sari is drawn under the left shoulder and secured over the right. This community also happens to be animal and ancestor worshippers, and have a number of festivals celebrated, the most important of which are: Puthari (harvest festival), Kail Polud (celebrating end of the paddy transplanting season), and Kaveri Sankramana (celebrating the birth of the river Kaveri). The Kodavas, a martial arts race, lay a lot of importance on their weapons, and hence have a festival dedicated to them - Keil Podh.

If there is one thing that defines Coorg the best, then it has to be the infinite regal fields of coffee plantations. Coorg is one of the highest producers of coffee in India.

To gain the best experience you can also choose to stay at one of the resorts located right in the centre of coffee fields.

It is necessary for coffee to be grown around a lot of trees and shade, as it would prevent soil erosion. Coorg has about 270 species of trees listed. An ideal rain of 60 to 80 inches is required for the plantation of coffee. Very cold weather is not suitable for the growth of coffee. The temperature ideal for the growth of coffee is between 23 degrees Celsius, and 28 degree Celsius.
