Farm
You can find here the rich biodiversity prevalent under the canopy of rainforest trees. By leaving uncultivated sectors of natural "weeds" and fauna in each valley, Kallat Heritage have been encouraging several predatory populations to flourish in these valleys. You can find here:
Coffee: (Coffee) is usually grown in the shade of the rainforest trees and the ripe red berries are handpicked, sundried, hulled, "monsooned" to get it its unique flavour, graded, roasted and ground, all at the farm. The coffee here is a special blend between the Arabica and Robusta varieties and gives a strong brew best tasted as a Mocca or Espresso.
Piper nigrum: (Black Pepper) Hand picked from vines which grow on the native jungle trees, black pepper is rich with volatile oils that make it known as the "king of spices". It aids in digestion, antiflatulence, relieves sore throats, has antioxidant properties, enhances general metabolism and forms an intrinsic part of all indian and much of continental cuisine.
Vanilla planifolia: (Vanilla) Introduced from Central and South America, vanilla flowers are hand pollinated and the beans are cured manually to yield the amazingly fragrant pods. These are valued as aromatic stimulants and can be used to flavour sweets, ice creams, beverages, or in cosmetics. Vanilla was used traditionally as a remedy for hysteria, low fevers, impotency, and enhancing sensory nervous system. Vanillin can be eluted or used as beans.
