Roaster thoughts :

A zero heat fed approach was taken for the 1st time by grey Soul Coffee Roasters. We release a black triangle coffee once or twice a year and look forward for all to brew and try. This new approach to roasting has developed deep sweet fruit forward flavours and enhanced the overall body in final cup. This lot can be enjoyed both as espresso and filter with brewing temperatures of 92 and above. 

The estate and efforts:
We all are familiar with the producer Mr. Ashok Patre and his family run estate Ratnagiri Estate. Our founder visited the farm back in the month of march 2021 when coffee processing was at its peak.
A day's visit to the estate to understand the farm, the processing techniques and the history behind the legacy was great. Our meeting began with knowing each other and talking and about the passion that runs Grey Soul Coffee as a brand.
Then it led to discussions about the specialty community and culture in our country right now. Moving on, we spoke about cup score, Q grading and how it varies from person to person and hence become highly subjective.
Then we spoke about international markets and a comparison between Indian and south American coffee. Then quickly moved on a long elaborate your of the farm where some coffee was milled and ready, some drying on raised beds, some drying out in the fields and hand garbling in works as final sorting was in process.
In the end, specialty coffee can be simply defined as the coffee that is of the best quality without comprises. This is exactly what this estate stands for and believes in.
