Description

It is believed to have originated in the highlands of Ethiopia, specifically in the region of ‘Kaffa’, which is where its name may have originated. The cultivation of coffee in India traces back to 1670 when Baba Budan introduced coffee beans from Yemen to the hills of Chikmagalur in Karnataka. Subsequently, coffee plantations have taken root in this region and expanded southward into Kodagu (Wild Anthony, 1995).
