It is fairly uncommon to get a coffee grown in India. This coffee makes for a great dark roast. Smooth, balanced, robust. Like our other dark roast coffees, this has a lower acidity.
Lalithadri Coffee Estate has been owned by Mr. Jayaram MS since 1990. It is a 69-hectare farm growing several varieties of coffee. The farm is in a very biodiverse area and peafowl, bison, wild boar, and other wildlife can be spotted on the property. The estate owner has a master's degree in entomology in addition to his coffee farming.
Coffee here is picked ripe and the post-harvest processing is done using great care to preserve water and other resources; coffee pulp is turned into compost for nutrition.
