Roaster thoughts :
Fermented naturals from ratnagiri estate profiled as an ultra light to bring out the floral notes from this LOT. This coffee is one the most unique single origin coffees's we have come across. A lot that everyone must try to understand terror and complexity Indian specialty coffee can deliver. It was a challenge at first to understand the nature, origin and process of this LOT, but as we sample roasted and cupped first few batches we knew where we were headed. Clean floral aromatics, jasmine in your final cup & bright acidity makes this a very enjoyable cup of coffee.
ULTRA LIGHT Roast — A New Roasting Approach by Grey Soul Coffee Roasters
This year, we’ve pushed the boundaries of our roasting philosophy with the introduction of an ultra light roast, designed to highlight the terroir and complexity of exceptional Indian Arabicas. This particular lot was dropped at 195°C, marking one of our lightest development profiles to date.
After extensive profiling and multiple roast iterations, we selected a high-grown Arabica with the structural integrity to withstand a fast Maillard phase and short post-crack development, while still preserving the vibrant acidity we were chasing.
Brewing Note: Due to its delicate roast level, we recommend brewing this coffee with higher water temperatures (97°C) and a controlled pour to ensure full extraction. Attention to grind size, agitation, and brew time is critical to achieve optimal clarity and balance in the cup.
This coffee is a testament to our commitment to innovation and continuous refinement in roasting. It’s not just light — it’s purposefully light.
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.
Brew Better: Water & Resting Guidelines
Water is just as important as the beans. For the cleanest, most balanced cup, we recommend using **mineral water with a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) level not above 140 ppm**. This will allow the true flavor of your coffee to shine.
Rested Coffee = Better Coffee
Freshly roasted coffee continues to evolve. Harsh or roasty notes fade, giving way to sweetness, clarity, and complexity.
Our resting guide:
Minimum rest (Filter): 10 days after roast date
Minimum rest (Espresso): Up to 3 weeks after roast date
Patience pays off. Let your coffee settle, and enjoy a cup that truly reflects its origin.
