Araku Microlot 1.23 starts the year on a high, with one of the most well-rounded coffees. The flavour reflects the nutrient-rich soil. The sweetness and lemony tartness is complimented with subtle tannin akin to a red wine.

This coffee enjoys a 15-day drying period, during which it’s evenly sun-dried on raised coffee beds. It’s very well-suited for manual brewing, both French Press and South Indian Filter.

Notes Brown Sugar, Lemon Tart, Sweet Molasses, Wine-like Aftertaste

Cupping Score 85/100

Coffee from the region of Gurra Garuvu. Naturally processed coffee characterised by its well-rounded flavour. It owes its sweetness to crimson red coffee cherries, procured from Araku’s high slopes (1100-1250 metres) bearing a robust soil structure (dark brown to black soils with scree). If the farms are easy on the eyes, the coffee is pleasing to the palate!
