How it sits among coffee from India
The Bean Shop describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, spice, earthy. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from India; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from India, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
Where each fact came from
Acidity
“It has an exceptionally low acidity and an incredibly full, syrupy body, with layers of dark chocolate, cocoa and treacle followed by earthy cedarwood, pipe tobacco and gentle notes of pepper and nutmeg.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
Country of origin
“Monsoon Malabar takes its name from the monsoon winds of India’s Malabar Coast.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
How it travelled
“Centuries ago, green coffee was transported from India to Europe by wooden sailing ships, a journey that could take several months.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
A further 3 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
