"The coffee of Poabs Organic Estates is
grown bio-dynamically, with care being paid
to the environment, to the work culture and
above all to the quality in the cup. The
robustas from this estate, when washed, have
a Strong body, are Neutral, Clean and
possess a Fair Smoothness, with a tint of
bitterness, enabling the beans to be even
brewed as a ‘neat’ drink. The farm is a
delight to the eye and the cup a stimulant
to the palate!" says Ms Sunalini N. Menon, an
internationally renowned coffee taster and
CEO of Coffeelab Pvt. Ltd. based in
Bangalore, India.
Poabs Estate is a member of the Specialty
Coffee Association of America (SCAA), the
Speciality Coffee Association of Europe
(SCAE) and Specialty Coffee Association of
Japan (SCAJ).
