Mōhanakalyāni

Our sweetest washed coffee is back! Sourced from Krishnagiri estate, high up in the Chandra drona hills(a.k.a the Giris) of Chikmagalur, this lot of washed arabica fascinated us with its bean density and versatility(traits we have come to associate with the coffee from Krishnagiri estate). Ripe cherries of the Chandrigiri varietal have been selected for this lot and the estate has tweaked their standard washed process to eke more out of the coffee. The final cup is very sweet, prominently sweet lime-esqe and floral towards the end. Those hibiscus like florals really surprised us in testing and remind us of the rāga Mohanakalyāni. This coffee is the designated daily driver at kāpikottai HQ. We have been guzzling litres of this lot as an iced pourover and it never disappoints. Mohanakalyāni the coffee, is a delight across all manual brews 9 days from date of roast and also makes for a sweet sweet shot of espresso 18 days from date of roast.
