Description

Bili Hu Krishna Estate Arabica Coffee comes from the Malnad region of Chikmagalur, at an elevation of 3600 to 3800 ft above sea level.

Krishna estate was developed by Krishnappa, the great-grandfather of the current custodians.

The coffee is cultivated from Selection-3 and Selection-9 varieties developed at CCRI, Balehonnur, along with the recently planted Chandragiri variety of Arabica.

The estate follows traditional growing and processing practices, aiming to minimize the use of residual fungicides by avoiding systemic fungicides and utilizing other preventive measures.

Shade is provided by a variety of jungle trees, including Garige, Basri, Byne, Silver Oak, and Jackfruit while intercropping with pepper and areca nut has been introduced over the last two years.

The coffee is picked in three stages, with ripe cherries selectively harvested, washed, and sun-dried on the estate’s home patio.

The sisters managing the estate describe their journey back to their roots as thrilling and are committed to contributing to the ecosystem through sustainable, ethically grown, and residue-free coffee.

We work with some of the best coffee planters in India every step of the way so that the coffee that reaches shelves, kitchens, and cups, is really the best.

A perfect cup of coffee is one of life’s great luxuries. And it starts from the beans. Ours come from one of the most bio-diverse regions in the world, Chikmagalur.

To preserve the coffee’s natural flavours, each batch is meticulously roasted to bring out nuances treating it like it were wine or whiskey.

There are no machines at the time of harvest either, which means each cherry is picked and sorted by hand. The attention to detail at every step of the way is obvious from the first sip.
