Monsoon Malabar Coffee Beans — 1kg | Premium Indian Arabica | Chiswells Coffee
One of the world's most distinctive and sought-after coffees — Monsoon Malabar is a uniquely processed Indian Arabica that undergoes a traditional monsoon conditioning method, producing a coffee unlike anything else. Exceptionally low acidity, full-bodied, and deeply earthy — a coffee for those who want something truly different. Artisan-roasted in small batches with passion by Chiswells' master roaster. FREE UK delivery on orders over £70.
The Origin Story
On the Malabar Coast of southwest India, green coffee beans are laid out in open-sided warehouses and exposed to the warm, moisture-laden monsoon winds for several months. This ancient, labour-intensive process — unique to India — causes the beans to swell, lose their acidity, and develop a remarkably distinctive earthy, full-bodied character that no other processing method can replicate.
The result is a coffee celebrated by specialty roasters worldwide — and Chiswells' master roaster carefully small-batch roasts each lot to bring out the very best of this extraordinary bean.
The Taste
Monsoon Malabar is defined by its remarkably low acidity and extraordinary body. Expect rich earthy notes, dark chocolate, a hint of spice, and a long, warming finish. Full-bodied and smooth, with none of the brightness of East African or Central American origins. This is a coffee that commands attention — bold, distinctive, and utterly memorable.
