India is the home of Monsooned Malabar — and a wider origin of low-acid, chocolatey, spice-tinged coffees grown in shaded hill estates.

Grown across the hills of Karnataka, Chikmagalur and the Baba Budan range, India coffee is mellow and full-bodied — dark chocolate, baking spice, caramel and soft fruit with very low acidity. The Malabar coast is famous for Monsooned Malabar, where beans are exposed to seasonal monsoon winds for a heavy, musty, savoury character. Washed, natural and carbonic-maceration lots round out the range. A distinctive, spice-forward origin — explore it and try something different.
