FLAVOR PROFILE
In the misted foothills of Merthi Mountain, where forests wrap around the heart of Chikmagalur, stands Badnekhan Estate — a land its name itself calls “forest home.” Since the 1940s, its canopied slopes have sheltered Arabica trees beneath wild fig and silver oak. The air is cool, the soil red with life, and every harvest moves to the quiet rhythm of mountain rain and patient hands.
Badnekhan’s consistency has earned it multiple national awards at Flavour of India – Fine Cup Competition — including recognition abroad for its SLN-9 lots. Its beans reach discerning specialty buyers worldwide — from Japan to Scandinavia to Australia and the U.S. — underscoring its global-grade reliability.
Cherry picking is followed by full-wash processing using fresh spring water, then sun-drying on raised beds — resulting in clean, stable beans at ~ 11–11.5% moisture.
