Nanolot : Pomegranate & Chocolate Praline, Natural Process

NANOLOT 1 is the first release in ARAKU Coffee's 2026 Nanolot Collection—a coffee created from a single farmer, a single plot and a single exceptional harvest. Produced by K. S. Rao, whose dedication to regenerative farming and meticulous cultivation has transformed the quality of his coffee, this release showcases one of ARAKU Coffee's most exceptional harvests, brought to life through meticulous craftsmanship. Using carefully selected ripe cherries and a Natural Process, the coffee develops a vibrant and complex cup profile. Bright notes of purple grapes and pomegranate lead into layers of dried berries, warming spices reminiscent of Christmas cake, and a lingering finish of chocolate praline. Grown at elevations of 1,050–1,350 metres in the forests of the Araku Valley and roasted as a Light Roast, NANOLOT 01.26 is best enjoyed through manual brewing methods that reveal its clarity, sweetness and evolving complexity. With only 21 kilograms produced, equivalent to just 84 individually numbered packs, this coffee is available only once. When the final pack is gone, this harvest will never be repeated. Note: For optimal flavour and aroma, we recommend a 15-day resting period from the roast date before brewing.
