MONSOONED MALABAR AA
The majority of Indian coffee is grown and processed in the Chikmagalur region. There, the coffee grows on steep mountain slopes at 1100m altitude. Our Monsooned Malabar comes from the Karadykan Estate, which is located in Chikmagalur. In 1890, Karadykan was founded by the two British brothers W.L. and C.S. Crawford, and later became the property of Sangameshwar Coffee. By absorbing moisture during monsoon rains, the coffee develops its extraordinary cup profile and aroma.
