Attikan White Mist 2022 (India)

from 450.00

The new harvest of Attikan White Mist is here! Enjoy this timeless nutty and chocolatey profile that has been revamped in 2022 to enhance every flavor note that makes this coffee a customer favourite.

  • Producers: Hamsini & Sriram Appadurai (Sangameshwar Coffee Estates)
  • Region: Bilgirirangana Hills
  • Type: 100% Arabica
  • Roast Profile: Espresso Roast
  • Altitude: 1650 MASL
  • Process: Washed (Double Fermentation)
  • Varieties: SL9
  • Flavor Notes: Baker’s Chocolate, Roasted Nuts, Cedar

The first phrase that graced the lips of our Q-Grader when she analyzed this coffee was – “Bold and Beautiful.” By pushing this roast into medium dark territory, we get a lovely plethora of dark chocolate notes harmoniously dancing with nutty aromas and a rounded cedar finish. It is ideal for espresso brewing but is sure to be a favourite for Moka Pot enthusiasts and cold brew fanatics who experiment with cocktails and other brave concoctions. With excellent body and good solubility, espresso-brewing should be a breeze for professional and home-baristas alike. But hey, we’re not limiting this lot to 9-bar geeks alone. If you love surprises as much as we do, go ahead and try it in a Kalita or an Aeropress!

This coffee comes from Attikan Estate – a farm passionately nurtured over decades and proudly managed and pushed to new heights by current generation coffee producers Appadurai Sriram and his wife Hamsini. Attikan or the ‘White Hill’ is eternally soaked with mist giving the coffee a unique taste profile. The farm is situated at the highest altitude where coffee is cultivated in South India . Being flanked by a reserve forest, the wilderness helps Attikan maintain its pristine nature with no electricity or mobile connectivity.

Baudelaire – Stanmore Pineapple Naturals (Microlot)

from 555.00
  • Producers: MSP Coffee
  • Region: Yercaud, Shevaroys
  • Type: 100% Arabica
  • Roast Profile: Espresso Roast
  • Altitude: 1220 – 1370 MASL
  • Process: Pineapple Fermented Naturals
  • Varieties: SL795, SL9
  • Flavor Notes: Lychee, Kiwi, Strawberry Jam

“You have to be always drunk. That’s all there is to it—it’s the only way. So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk.

But on what? Wine, poetry or virtue, as you wish. But be drunk.”

We’re adding coffee to that list with our specially curated lot of Pineapple Fermented Naturals from Stanmore Estate of MSP Plantations dedicated to the romance poet extraordinaire – Charles Pierre Baudelaire. He induced a sense of exoticism, ephemerality and sublimity into the simple, real experiences of everyday life. Baudelaire is an espresso roast driven by the objective of delivering a sweet and fruity punch elegantly revealing itself through a jammy texture and a scrumptious lychee note. Careful examination will bring hints of strawberry and kiwi to your attention. Mr. Baudelaire – the first modernist – crafted literary works that captured the changing nature of beauty in an urban metropolis. This lot of coffee is also a fierce project in modernism – a multi-layered and complex process of growth, harvest, processing and roasting through which we try to capture the changing nature of beauty in coffee and particularly the universe of espresso.

So be drunk, friend. You have to be always drunk. But on what? Wine, poetry, virtue or coffee, as you wish. But be drunk!

Process: Whole ripe cherries are handpicked and sorted after which they are triple rinsed to remove all impurities. These cherries are then fermented with single farm, single varietal hill pineapples which allow for consistent fermentation. Fermentation is allowed until the target pH readings are achieved. The brix of pineapples is measured and kept constant to ensure repeatability. Following fermentation, the produce is dried on raised tables under partial shade for a period of 18 to 24 days.
