Kalmane Coffee is exclusive coffee shop for true coffee lovers like me. This 125 yr old Kalmane Coffee estate, CHIKMAGALUR DIST. has direct outlets in Bangalore’s Forum and Garuda Malls. Here one gets to drink the awesome, aromatic coffee. One can see the beans roasted and powered to give the ultimate flavor in a true filter coffee.
The place in quite small and doesn’t really offer ambience like that of Coffee Day or Barista but for KAAPI other things really don’t matter. They also have separate coffee kiosk in Transit Lounge in Forum where people can savor this fav beverage after yummy snack. For the normal filter coffee at Rs 15 per cup, the taste does surely linger in the mouth for a long time.
Kalmane offers variety of coffee powders. They have 5 blends :
1.The Blue Grass ---Blend of Chicory and Coffee
Mysore Nuggets----Pure Coffee
Harmony---Pure Arabica Cofee
4.Cantata---Bitter Sweet Blend
- Crescendo---Blend of Arabica and Robusta
*From Cappuccino to Espresso, Cafe Latte to Mocha, its just AWESOME!!!
If u thought this place was only for HOT CUPPA, u would be swept by the amazing ranges they have for COLD COFFEE TOO like the Frozen Almond Mocha and the Fig and Honey delight.
What touches this place is that one gets to see the Big Coffee Machine where the coffee beans grinding takes place and the texture of the powder suits for the typical south indian filter or the percolator !!! As the beans are freshly ground, the lounge area itself is surrounded by its EXOTIC AROMA!!! This lesser known coffee shop has unique clientele who vouch by its loyalty. They also sell cookies , cardamom powder etc.Now Bangalore has one more attraction - Kalmane Coffee to stir ur SOULS!!!!!
