Roaster thoughts :
Roasting specialty coffee this year is a worldly experience altogether. Coffee processing in our country this year has taken a leap. This particular LOT is a AAA Grade coffee coming from Ratnagiri Estate and a single farmer LOT. It is a washed process coffee. We roasted this coffee 5 ways right from 205° all the way upto to 212°. After speaking with the producer, understanding the coffee and processing, we knew a lighter roast wont produce the right balance of flavors and a roast level of medium or a medium-dark was needed. After successfully cupping trials of found a 210° drop to the ideal roast profile for this LOT.
