  • Candied Mandarin – Ratnagiri Carbonic Washed

Candied Mandarin – Ratnagiri Carbonic Washed

from ₹685.00

  • Producers: Ashok Patre
  • Region: Chikmagalur
  • Type: 100% Arabica
  • Roast Profile: Omni Roast
  • Altitude: 1350 MASL
  • Process: Carbonic Washed
  • Varieties: Catuai
  • Flavor Notes: Lavender aroma and sweet malic acidity with rounded buttery body. Notes of mandarin, peach and black currant leading to a grapy finish.

Our first Omni Roast in the showcase series is a resounding sensation from Ratnagiri Estate. ‘Candied Mandarin’ embodies the pinnacle of coffee craftsmanship, having undergone a highly controlled 90-hour extended carbonic maceration washed process. Cherries, meticulously picked at a brix of 23, were subjected to de-pulping before being placed in stainless steel fermenters. These vessels were purged with carbon dioxide gas, nurturing a 90-hour fermentation process, aimed at extracting the utmost complexity of flavors. After this rigorous fermentation, the produce was cleansed with clear water and steeped for a full 24 hours. A patient drying procedure on raised beds extended over 27 days rounded off the process.

The culmination of this precise process is a unique and intriguing cup. With a discernible lavender aroma and vibrant malic acidity, it expresses a rounded and luscious tactile quality. Notes of peach, black currant, and mandarin lead to a gratifying, grapy finish. Whether utilized for sweet and syrupy espresso shots, or savored in a meditative pourover, ‘Candied Mandarin’ delivers a silky-smooth coffee replete with a symphony of fruity nuances. This offering is yet another shiny gem in the Ratnagiri portfolio and brims with delight. Savor the experience!

Our first washed lot in The Poetry of Coffee Collection comes from Kerehaklu Estate – owned, managed and nurtured by Ajoy Thipaiah and his son Pranoy. They share a great connection with their land and an immense passion for farming and processing coffee. With a strong focus on how their practices influence the ecosystem and the surrounding environment, they bring stunning coffees to roasters across India and around the world. Their process thrives on phenomenal attention to detail which in turn assists the roaster in understanding the coffee treasure being worked with to achieve a perfect transformation from green to roasted coffee. It is a rare and special ability to draw upon the most detailed observations in nature and the happenings around one to construct arduous works of art that are shrouded in curious metaphor but conceal the most beautiful truths about the earth and the universe around us. It is only fitting for us to dedicate this lot to Henry David Thoreau – the masterful transcendental author of the renowned literary work  Walden.

Thoreau wrote a great deal about his solitary life in nature and how true contentment was found in learning to live in self-sufficiency. The illumination of Thoreau was a consequence of his deep understanding of nature’s harmonies which were a result of his simple day-to-day life lived in a small cabin beside Walden Pond. Experience Thoreau – an elegant, washed lot with floral aromas and notes of lemon and green grapes – a work of art born out of the harmony between arduous efforts of the Thipaiahs and the natural soul of Kerehaklu Estate.
