Chandra Hills Plantation A

Chandra hills are a part of the Western Ghats in India; which is known for its biodiversity, while being home for more than 5,000 species of flowering plants and hundreds of different fauna. The coffee is grown under leguminous trees, which forms a bi-layer canopy. This mixed shade prevents soil erosion while the foliage enriches the soil; thereby protecting the plants from seasonal temperature fluctuations. The Washed or Wet-processed Arabica coffees are called as ‘Plantation’ in India.
