Some people assume that Indian Monsooned Malibar is all the same………..simply an aged coffee from India that is pale in color and has very large beans. However, there are all different kinds of quality when it comes to monsooned coffees. As one would expect, the quality of the end result must begin with high quality beans, which then must undergo a painstaking process of laying the beans out on drying beds during the humid monsoon season and keep turning the beans on the bed for uniform aging to occur. There are no better monsooned beans than those from Josuma Coffee, which is owned and operated by world renowned Dr. Joseph John. Dr. John is the driving force behind the quality of the Malibar.
We are happy to have received several Indian coffees earlier this week. Including the Malibar, we also now have a monsooned robusta; a very interesting coffee that we are having lots of fun with as we cup it and are using it for blend development. Quality robustas are often used in Spanish and Italian espressos (pretty much “European espressos” for that matter). As of this writing, our web master, Valic, has not posted this Monsooned Robusta on our green coffee bean offering page yet!!! Expect it very soon though.
Also incoming is a very nice, India Mysore Nuggets. We are waiting for Valic to post this also.
