Kabbinahalli Estate

Kabbinahalli Estate is located near Hirekolale, Chikkamagaluru, Karnataka, in India’s Western Ghats. The estate is managed by coffee producer Madhav K.N.

The farm sits in the highland coffee landscape around Hirekolale, at approximately 900 metres above sea level. This region is shaped by cool temperatures, seasonal monsoon rainfall, and hilly terrain, creating favourable conditions for coffee cultivation.

Kabbinahalli Estate grows Chandragiri, an Indian Arabica variety developed for coffee-growing conditions in the region. At this elevation, the climate supports gradual cherry development, helping the coffee build sweetness and structure through the growing season.

The estate reflects the coffee-growing character of Chikkamagaluru: coffee cultivated in a landscape of hills, rainfall, and long-standing agricultural knowledge. Under Madhav K.N.’s stewardship, Kabbinahalli Estate produces coffee rooted in this distinct Western Ghats origin.
