Figs & Berries is our first lot from South India Coffee Company (SICC) – an Indian specialty trade house working with over 20 producers across India. This 96-hour yeast fermented honey is from Mooleh Manay Estate in Coorg, managed by SICC founders Komal and Akshay. We’re thrilled to begin our relationship with them that gives us access to their detail-driven microlots that push the boundaries of Indian Coffee exploring new and unique flavourscapes.

Welcome the pleasant aroma of dried raisins, which transitions into notes of sweet figs and subtle hints of peach. The rich and creamy mouthfeel is complemented by a balanced acidity, creating delicious, lip-smacking espressos that are excellent when enjoyed black or as the base for smooth and creamy milk-based beverages. The coffee finishes with a tangy raspberry note, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate fruity, sweet, and tangy espressos.

Ripe coffee cherries were selectively hand-harvested and then separated by density using a flotation tank. The cherries underwent a controlled 60-hour fermentation in anaerobic fermentation tanks, where a custom yeast culture was introduced. After fermentation, the cherries experienced an eco-friendly pulping process to meticulously remove the outer fruit skin. The pulped coffee was then returned to the tanks for a secondary fermentation, where it was again introduced to the custom yeast culture for an additional 36 hours.

Following fermentation, the coffee was transferred to a controlled-environment polyhouse for meticulous drying. It was spread on raised beds to ensure even moisture removal, and the team of workers regularly turned the coffee with rakes for optimal drying. Once the coffee reached an 11% to 12% moisture content, it was carefully bagged and allowed to rest for two months, enabling the flavors to fully mature and develop.
