Join us in celebrating our first specialty coffee from India, and we really didn't hold back. This coffee from Ratnagiri Estate is sublime.
There's too much to say about Ratnagiri Estate, and how impressive this producer is. Our short overview of the coffee itself is that this lot were harvested at 23.6 brix (that's super sweet y'all!). There’s no rush during cherry picking. It’s slow, it’s steady, and it’s real. Hands that have worked this land for years know exactly when a cherry is just right. After the best of eyes, the cherries still pass through a colour sorted to ensure science finishes the job.
The cherries were floated and then placed in a stainless steel fermentation tank along with a specific strain of yeast. The coffee was then allowed to ferment in the tank for 72 hours, in a carbon dioxide rich environment, before being moved to raised beds where it was dried for 26 days.
It's like nothing you've ever tried, and everything you always dreamed of.
