A producer is more than one person.

This year, our packaging introduces you to the many custodians behind India’s highest-scoring coffees. Each release highlights a different role, from pickers and rakers to the many others who see a harvest through.

ABOUT THE COFFEE

Prakashan has always treated coffee as something to keep learning from. His curious, experimentative lens has introduced us to many remarkable coffees over the years. Exploring how one fermentation can influence another, this special lot is no different.  

As coffee cherries ferment, they release a microbe-rich liquid called Mosto. Prakashan and his team collected it from a Gesha they had processed earlier. For this lot, he then used it as a starter culture, guiding SLN 9 cherries through a 72-hour fermentation. Slow drying on raised beds for 25-30 days locked the developments that had set in. The result is a coffee with remarkable complexity and character 

It brews cups that bring a delicate balance of bright, fruity layers and florality, on the nose and in the sip. A silky mouthfeel unwraps notes of pink pomelo, tart cherries, chamomile, and pomegranate. Adding further depth and delight is the gooseberry-like finish.  

Recommended Resting Period:  13 days

Note: This coffee pack is a special release with limited availability and, therefore, cannot be included in a subscription plan.

With a strong focus on the Maillard reaction and the development phase, we preserved the coffee's unique character while developing a balanced and expressive cup.

Mosto breaks the rules of traditional processing and completely rewrites the cup's architecture.
