Our honey sun dried coffee from Thogarihunkal Estate has a beautiful aroma of marmalade and prune along with tasting notes of mosambi, peach and red grape. This particular lot was processed using the honey sun dried method in which coffee beans are dried with a sticky layer of mucilage (pulpy layer between the bean and skin) on them — lending fruity flavours to the final cup. Brew this medium roast as an espresso or pick from a variety of manual brewing options such as Moka Pot, Pour Over, AeroPress or a French Press to enjoy its medium body and creamy mouthfeel, finished off with a hint of sweet orange. This coffee has medium acidity and ranks low on the bitterness scale. 

Tasting Notes: Mosambi, Peach, Red Grape

Roast Level: Medium
