Monsooned Malabar is India's contribution to the global coffee world - a unique processing method dating back to the colonial era.
Browse Matching CoffeesHistorically, coffee shipped from India to Europe endured monsoon winds in open wooden ships, aging and yellowing the beans.

Monsooned Malabar is protected by GI tag and must be produced in specified regions. It's exceptional for espresso and those who prefer low-acid coffee.
