Where Heritage Meets Excellence
From a visionary's dream in Kerala's misty hills to market leadership across the Middle East — this is the extraordinary story of three generations devoted to perfecting the art of tea.
The Story of Liquid Poetry
Every great story has chapters. Ours spans three generations, five decades, and countless moments where passion met purpose.
Where Dreams Meet Destiny
In the misty hills of Kerala, among ancient spice gardens where cardamom and pepper had traded hands for centuries, Devassy Jose saw something extraordinary. While others saw just another agricultural commodity, he saw liquid poetry waiting to be perfected.
When Passion Becomes Purpose
The aroma that would change everything came from a single cup of perfectly brewed Assam. In that moment, the family knew their calling wasn't just agriculture—it was tea. Every nuance, every note, every perfect brew became an obsession.
Building Tomorrow's Standards
As the second generation took the reins, tradition met innovation. Encils Global Beverages wasn't just a company name—it was a promise. Every system, every process, every relationship was rebuilt to honor the past while embracing the future.
Where Two Worlds Become One
Dubai's golden sands welcomed more than just another business—they welcomed a cultural bridge. DJE AGRO DMCC became the place where Indian tea heritage meets Middle Eastern sophistication, where tradition serves innovation.
