Origin and Plantation
The India monsooned Malabar is a coffee with an exceptional body and with very little acidity. Slightly sweet aromas wonderfully round off the full flavour. The region of Malabar lies at the southernmost point of India, north to the city of Cochin. At an altitude of 900 to 1,500 m above sea level a special processing method, the so-called "monsooning" is used. This process gives this coffee its unique character. The dried and processed beans are peeled and packed in jute bags. The bags are then exposed to the monsoon and have to be repackaged every six to eight days in order to avoid the appearance of mould. After eight to ten weeks, the coffee is ready to be roasted. It is slightly swollen and pale, but more easily digestible than "normal" beans.

Character and Taste
Exceptionally full-flavoured, very little acidity combined with a strong aroma. This coffee is fruity, delicately herb and has a rather full body.

PARTICULARITIES
India produces washed and unwashed coffees (called “cherry“). The washed Arabica is labelled “plantation arabica“ and the washed Robusta is called “Parchment Robusta“. For the production of monsooned coffee, the coffee beans are put into layers of 10 - 15 cm and spread in a well aired warehouse. The coffee beans are exposed to the humid wind of the monsoon over a space of 12 to 16 weeks and regularly turned over.
