What is monsoon coffee?
Monsoon coffee (rainy season Malaba) is a unique coffee from southern India using a typical air-drying process, specially stored in an open warehouse and exposed to the monsoon to increase viscosity and reduce acidity.
Monsoon coffee is stored in a special warehouse until the monsoon arrives, and the ventilation structure is designed to allow the moist monsoon to circulate between the coffee beans, so that its volume expands and shows a mellow but strong mildew smell. The monsoon process is labor-intensive: coffee is spread out in special ventilated warehouses and raked or turned by hand to allow coffee beans to absorb moisture in the moist wind. The whole process takes 12 to 16 months, in which the coffee beans expand to twice their original volume and have a dull golden yellow. Then the coffee beans that are not fully inflated are picked out with extra processing, and the rest of the coffee is to be exported.
The aroma of this dried coffee is not very strong, but with the addition of water, a combination of strongly roasted nuts (dry-roasted peanuts), caramel and tobacco come to the nostrils.
