## What the Brand Says

> About Monsoon Malabar AA- Hoysala Estate 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 cocoa 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 with milk or black. Recommended Resting Period: 15 Days
