From our partners: 

The Garige Khan Estate is located in Mallandur Village, Chikmagalur District. This area is part of the Chandra Dhrona Hill mountain ranges of the Western Ghats, home to the highest peak nearby, Mullayanagiri. The Estate is massive, at over 2000 hectares of land, though not all of it is planted in coffee. They grow many other crops, like pepper, turmeric, and citrus, as well as coffee. The highest point at the farm is 1400 meters above sea level, and most of the coffee varieties are either Bourbon types, or disease resistant hybrids. "Garige" is the word for red cedar trees, of which there are quite a few on the property. This is one of a few wet process Arabica coffees offered to us by an import partner we work with. We don't buy enough Indian coffee annually to work in a more direct way, so having the option to pre-select coffees from someone we trust makes a lot of sense.
