Petu Kariappa is a second-generation coffee farmer who runs Harangal Farm, in the pristine forested hills of the Coorg region of India. After returning home from college, Petu decided to continue the family tradition of growing coffee. From his father and extended family, he gleaned information related to agriculture and coffee growing. The farm grows 60% Arabica and 40% Robusta.

The Coorg coffee growing region is part of the Western Ghats. The Western Ghats of India is one of the eight 'hottest' biodiversity spots in the world and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This mountain range runs along the west coast of peninsular India and shapes the rainfall and temperature patterns of much of southern India. Many rivers of South India originate in these mountains. The farm's coffee is shade grown with a high density and diversity of native tree species that support life for a wide variety of birds, butterflies and mammals.

Our new coffee from India is intended for the preparation of sweet espresso, in which you will smell the aroma of marzipan, complemented by the taste of tamarind, dried apple and dark chocolate.
