Important: If this is your first Excelsa, its distinctive profile may surprise you at first—but give it a few cups, and it just might win you over.

Tipsy Rascal is a tribute to coffee’s wild side. Crafted from Excelsa—a coffee species entirely distinct from both Arabica and Robusta—this release throws convention out the window. Once considered a curiosity, Excelsa is rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting frontiers in specialty coffee, captivating producers, processors and roasters with a flavour spectrum unlike anything else. Bold, expressive and delightfully unpredictable, it invites us to rethink what coffee can be.

This lot is produced through the South India Coffee Company (SICC) Community, a collaborative initiative that brings together growers across Coorg with a shared commitment to quality and experimentation. Cherries from multiple producers are processed at Mooleh Manay Estate using a structured, data-driven approach that highlights the unique potential of Excelsa while celebrating the diversity of Coorg’s terroir.

The cup is unapologetically untamed—layering exotic florals, tropical fruit, dark rum, toddy-like complexity, creamy macadamia richness and a lingering funky sweetness into an experience that is equal parts fascinating and unforgettable. This is Excelsa, unfiltered.

An unapologetically exotic cup that opens with striking aromas of persimmon and nerium blossom, layered with delicate floral lifts. The palate unfolds into notes of dark rum and fresh toddy, carried by a rich, creamy mouthfeel and balanced by a gentle, lively acidity. Macadamia nut emerges through the long, lingering finish, where an intriguing funky sweetness continues to evolve. Complex, expressive and deeply memorable, this is a coffee that rewards slow, attentive drinking with every sip.

Perfectly ripe Excelsa cherries were selectively handpicked, hand sorted and density separated before undergoing 48 hours of pre-fermentation drying. The partially dried cherries were then sealed in plastic drums for a 60-hour carbonic maceration with a carefully selected Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast culture. Following fermentation, the cherries were slowly sun-dried on raised beds inside polyhouses until they reached a stable moisture content. This carefully orchestrated process softened Excelsa’s naturally rustic character, revealing an astonishing spectrum of tropical fruit, florals and spice while preserving the variety’s unmistakably bold personality.
