Origin: Single Origin India

Variety: Robusta

Varietal: Robusta

Tasting Notes: Herbal, earthy and bitter

Robusta varieties are grown in India, mainly in the regions of Karnataka and Kerala, in the southwest of the Indian subcontinent. Traditionally, it is small farmers and family businesses that grow and harvest the beans by hand without the use of machines. The dry processing of the beans also requires a drying period of several weeks, during which the beans must be turned over, again and again, to ensure even drying and the development of the typical aromas. During sun-drying, the pectin layer of the picked bean is absorbed into the bean – unlike during washing, where it is separated – which influences the formation of aromas and taste: pectin contains sugar, so that sun-drying gives the later coffee bean a characteristic light sweetness. When roasted, the coffee has a herbal, earthy and bitter flavour.
