The Monsoon Malabar is a unique, low acid single origin from India. Crafted by the coffee roaster for a coffee that is truly unique with big bold flavours. Our coffee roaster is proud to showcase this single origin due to its creative process where the harvested coffee seeds are exposed to the monsoon winds and rains for up to four months. This process causes the beans to expand and lose almost all their original acidity giving the coffee an almost neutral pH balance. A good option for filter or a lighter espresso option with those that buy coffee online and in our retail store.
Flavour Notes:
A super intense coffee with low acidity and big bold flavours. It exhibits flavours of burnt caramel, malt, chocolate and spice.
Recipe:
Filter Brew Ratio: 1:18 Brew Time:Less than 2-minutes (depending on brew method). This means that for every gram of ground coffee added into the filter there is 18 grams of hot water. If using a plunger/French press you can add two tablespoon’s of ground coffee (approximately 14-grams), mixed with 250ml of hot water. Still stuck? Check out this link to learn more about brew ratios click here.
Our recipes are designed as templates for starting points and do vary depending on many other variables including personal preferences in particular.
Where it’s from:
This coffee is from the Malabar coast in India. The crops are selected and sun-dried in large barbecue style machines. The monsooning process involves a lot of labor repeatedly raking and turning the coffee around at intervals. The beans turn a pale golden colour that distinguishes them from other coffee.
light roast coffee but with low flavor and acidity.

Hadn't gotten this in a while and think it is even better than it was. Just a lovely smooth coffee with little acidity or any hint of unpleasant aftertaste. Nice light/medium roast. Taste is a very subjective thing of course but i think this is one of the best coffees you can get in NZ.

Not your average coffee
I love that Meebz has this coffee. It is so fascinating. It could be the PH level, but the mouthfeel is like none other, it's very dry. Then there is a 'funk' that I can't explain, it's not sweet, it's not acidic and it's also not really bitter... What???
For me, this won't be my daily because it is challenging. It will have a special time and place.
Today I made it in an Aeropress, keen to try some other methods to see what changes.
Thanks, Meebz!
PS: Is it weird to say that this bean is damn good-looking! :D

This is now my favourite morning cup of coffee. Full flavour without the bitter or burnt aftertaste of some of the dark roasted coffees I used to enjoy.

My favourite except for...
It has so much static and spreads rather than flows from the grinder causing grind loss. Flavour and aroma are amazing though.
