ABC has its seeds sown in the heart of the coffee cradle of India, Chikmagalur. The region is a world wrapped in primeval innocence, where panthers, tigers and elephants roam.
Our passion for coffee stems from the august heritage of coffee estates inherited by the promoter's family. What started out with a small group of family-owned estates, gradually grew as more and more estates were included to finally form Amalgamated Bean Coffee Trading Co. Ltd.
The plantations nestled in Chikmagalur and Mudigere region of the Western Ghats, are spread over 10500 acres of well-maintained estates upto 4500ft above sea level. This makes us the second largest plantation company in the country.
Our estates are the first and at present the only ones in India to be certified by the "Utz Kapeh Foundation" for efficient farm management and full traceability.
Our estates provide a natural habitat for several genus of flora and fauna.
They are hosts to innumerable herbs,shrubs and trees like jackfruit, arecanut, orange, pepper, cardamom, etc.
The coffees at our estate are grown under the dark shades of various forest trees like silver oak, Indian Rose wood and various others.
The estates share boundaries with some forest reserves and wild life sanctuaries and hence is also home to a variety of species of wildlife from birds and hares to deer, bisons, elephants, and even tigers!
The Bhadra river and numerous natural streams provide the all-essential aquatic support to the entire constitution.
