MONSOON MALABAR AA- Hoysala Estate

After our long-standing monsooned blend, we’re excited to introduce our first single-estate Monsoon Malabar from Hoysala Estate. This full-bodied coffee with its sweet aromas of butter biscuits and chocolatey aftertaste is best enjoyed when brewed as an Espresso, in the Moka Pot or the French Press. If you’ve tried our previous monsooned coffee, you’ll love this single-origin lot’s nutty flavour profile with taste notes of cocoa nibs and dried fruits. The winds and humidity from seasonal monsoon rain change the characteristics of the beans and creates a unique flavour profile. While this process has its accidental roots in colonial India when a shipment to Europe was attacked by the full force of monsoon winds, similar conditions have been recreated in a controlled environment for consistency in every lot produced.

We’re excited to bring back Monsoon Malabar from Hoysala Estate. The unique flavour profile of this coffee develops when winds and humidity from seasonal monsoon rain change the characteristics of the coffee beans. While this process has its accidental roots in colonial India when a shipment to Europe was attacked by the full force of monsoon winds, similar conditions have been recreated in a controlled environment for consistency in every lot produced. 

When roasted medium dark, the result is a medium-bodied cup that invites with sweet aromas of butter biscuits, treating you to notes of cacao nibs and dried fruit, concluding with the aftertaste of dark chocolate. Best enjoyed when brewed as an espresso, in the Moka Pot or the French press, the nutty flavour profile of this coffee makes for a delicious cup, either milky or black.
