- Madikeri - Coorg, often referred to as the “Coffee Cup of India,” is one of the country’s largest coffee producers, renowned for its exceptional mild coffee. The coffee from Coorg stands out because it is shade-grown under the native trees of the Western Ghats, a UN biodiversity hotspot. The two main varieties of beans cultivated in Coorg are Arabica and Robusta. Historically, coffee cultivation was introduced by the British and later adopted by local Coorgs as a commercial crop.
Today, coffee is extensively grown throughout Coorg. It is widely recognized that Coorg Robusta is among the best in the world and is exported globally, particularly to Europe.
