I will be traveling to India in mid august (Tamil Nadu-Pondicherry, Maharashtra-Pune and Delhi), and I want to visit some coffee farms there. I know that they do have Pulneys ,Sheveroys and Nilgiris plantations there, but I'm not sure how accesible are the farms there, to be able to visit then. Anyone had any experience with India coffees?

I was in Hyderabad in the end of 2008 and was thinking that it would be great to check out Indian coffee and maybe get some monsooned Malabar, but didn't have time to venture out. Now I'm in Milan and it looks like I may not have time to venture out to find a good coffee bar, but there's hope yet, I may have to stay through the weekend as the equipment is still stuck in customs. -Chris On Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 3:59 PM, silas coelho wrote: <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://host.sweetmariascoffee.com/mailman/listinfo/homeroast_lists.sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
Chris, My wife and I are traveling to Hyderabad at the end of December to go to a wedding. Can you point to any coffee plantations in the area? If we have some free time we'll go exploring.

Chris there is an outstanding coffee/wine/cheese store in Milan called Peck (http://www.peck.it),which offers some decent coffee. I have been there few years ago, but still 'unforgettable' Try and enjoy!

Frank, I never did find out if there was any coffee grown near Hyderabad and didn't really even do any sightseeing (not even making it to Charminar) so I'm not much help. Enjoy the trip, though and let us know what you find. -Chris On Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 6:16 PM, Frank Parth wrote: <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://host.sweetmariascoffee.com/mailman/listinfo/homeroast_lists.sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
