Forty-two hours of anoxic inoculated fermentation, and still a washed coffee at heart.

SLN9 grown at Kerehaklu Estate in Karnataka by Pranoy Thipaiah. Forty-two hours of controlled anoxic fermentation, guided by selective inoculation, layer a classic washed profile without overrunning it.

The cup opens with bright clarity, moves through a smooth cultured sweetness, and finishes long and balanced. Roasted light with filter in mind, though it holds a rounded acidity under pressure.

Pour over is the recommended route; in a French press, 18 g to 300 ml over 4:00 gives a fuller, silkier cup.

Roaster's note

A limited lot from the ongoing drop system. Released with intent, and not repeated.

Storing it

Seal the bag after every use and keep it somewhere cool, dry and dark. Not the fridge, not the freezer — both move moisture into the beans.

Shipping & Returns

Roasted and dispatched within 1–2 working days. Delivery across India usually takes 3–6 days depending on where you are.

Free on orders of Rs. 1,500 and over. A flat Rs. 100 applies below that.
