Odisha — East India
Koraput
A tribal-farmed plateau in the Eastern Ghats, largely unknown outside India, producing forest-grown Arabica with almost no chemical inputs.
Origins
Where Indian green coffee is grown
Four growing regions, each with a distinct climate, varietal mix, and processing tradition — from tribal-farmed Odisha naturals to century-old Karnataka estates.
Assam — North East India
Halflong
India's newest specialty frontier — high-altitude SL-9 Arabica from the North Cachar Hills, largely absent from green coffee catalogues a decade ago.
Assam / Arunachal Pradesh — North East India
Chirang & Tirap
Lower-elevation Robusta from the Assam–Arunachal border, grown as a smallholder cash crop between tea gardens and forest reserve land.
Karnataka — South India
Chikmagalur & Bababudangiri
The historic birthplace of Indian coffee — legend holds that Sufi saint Baba Budan smuggled seven Arabica seeds here from Yemen in the 1600s.
