Araku Coffee Museum
Coffee Museum, Araku Valley
A small museum on the history of coffee cultivation and roasting, where you can taste Araku coffee and buy chocolate and coffee beans.
The Coffee Museum sits beside the Tribal Museum. Models and illustrated panels tell the story of how coffee spread from Ethiopia to India and then to tribal farmers in Araku, along with the process from picking and drying to roasting. After your visit you can taste locally made pour-over coffee, coffee-flavored chocolate and desserts at the café. It is a favorite stop for visitors, and you can buy Araku coffee beans as a souvenir. Admission is cheap, but it is crowded in peak season. To see real coffee gardens, continue to the plantations around Ananthagiri.
