This is a big deal: positions like a coffee picker, for example, tend to be a seasonal labor force, and by offering more stable work, Hulikere has a base of a very skilled team that knows what it takes to produce higher quality coffee.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHulikere Estate is also a part of the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kaadkaapi\/\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKaadKaapi\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e collective, which focuses on integrating the systems of coffee production \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ealongside\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e the natural environment. To put it more clearly: these producers prioritize the health of their farmland and forests before coffee cultivation.

Processing techniques include float removal, disc pulping, natural fermentation, and meticulous drying in clay brick yards.

Over the last 3 years, we’ve purchased many coffees from India, and washed lots like this one remind us of what makes India’s terroir so special. This coffee has complex nutty and umami notes of sesame and pistachio, a caramel-like sweetness\/finish, and lingering notes of dried mango and baking spices. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Commonplace Coffee","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":50643942441207,"sku":null,"price":23.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":50643942473975,"sku":null,"price":55.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":50643942506743,"sku":null,"price":131.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/4731\/3911\/files\/Hulikere_Estate_web_12oz.png?v=1775138912","url":"https:\/\/commonplacecoffee.mom\/products\/hulikere-estate-india","provider":"Commonplace Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
