Our core value

Quality

The Jewel of Asian Coffee™ says it all. Winning the national and international award demonstrates our quality and flavor, but don’t just take our word for it: Q-Graders around the world have scored us consistently between 85-89 points. Himalayan Coffee is a quality-focused company and we strive to be the best coffee producer in Asia.

Traceability

You can trace the origin of the coffee, who grows it and how much we pay the farmers so that it is easy to understand where the money goes. We are transparent with all buyers and our farmers about the value-chain and how we produce, so that everyone involved can clearly understand the actual value of our coffee.

Accountability

We are sensitive to the ecological impact of growing practices, sustainability of farmlands and dignified livelihood of the farmers, that is why ‘The Farmer Support Program’ has been implemented which encourages responsible growing practices to help farmers so the quality and the volume of the harvest can be improved, which increases their income significantly.

Our coffee beans

This is the standard third-wave coffee bean, and Q-Graders around the world have scored us consistently between 85-89 points SCAA (Specialty Coffee Association of American) records.

It is a balanced coffee that makes you want to drink another cup, with a sweet aroma, nutty with a mint flavor, mild acidity, crispness and smoothness.

Highland Grow: We grow coffee on foothills of Himalayas from 1200m to 1600m.
Organic by Default: Our green beans are Organic by default. We don’t have 3rd party organic certificate. We do not use any harmful pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Most of the coffee is grown either in wild forests or at organic farmlands.
Shade Grown: Most of our coffee is grown using shades under canopy of trees and herbs which contributes to the complex flavor of the coffee.
Hand-Picked: We pick the best cherries individually by hand, separating and discarding the unripe or overripe cherries. Pickers rotate among the trees every eight to ten days, choosing only the cherries which are at the peak of ripeness.
100% hand-sorting: Hand-Sorting is the simplest but the most effective way for the high-quality coffee color sorting. Second: because we have a small quantity production, the automatic color sorter is not as needed.

About roasting

Roasting is the process of heating raw beans and purifying sugars and organic acids in the cell tissue of beans to produce aromatic substances, brown pigments, and bitter ingredients.

The green coffee beans have only a blue smell. However, roasting brings out flavors such as aroma, bitterness, and sourness. Each bean used in coffee has its own personality. In addition, changing the degree of roasting and the way you grind will change the taste, and enjoying the changes is the fun of coffee. We are confident that we are always looking for the best cup of coffee, making sure that a cup of coffee is the most delicious.
