Vyom 01 is a washed S795 from Basankhan Estate, a century-old family farm in Chikmagalur, Karnataka, now in its fourth generation. The trees grow at 1,470 m in a mixed shade canopy with black pepper, cardamom, oranges, lemons and bananas.
Roasted medium to Depth 42, it is green apple and muskmelon with golden caramel on filter, and red apple, toffee and milk chocolate as espresso. It is the brightest of the three coffees in The Washed Trilogy, bright without turning sharp. Brew it as a pour-over or an AeroPress first.
It is not a dark, heavy cup. For that, go to Agni 03. Roasted to order in New Delhi.
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.

Grind immediately before you brew, and use filtered water. Ground coffee loses more in an hour than whole bean loses in a week.

Where it grows
Basankhan Estate has grown coffee in Chikmagalur for more than a century and is now run by its fourth generation. The trees stand at 1,470 m in a mixed shade canopy with black pepper, cardamom, oranges, lemons and bananas. In Chikmagalur the blossom follows showers around March, and Arabica comes off the trees from late November through January.

Washed, then roasted
Cherries here are selectively picked, pulped, washed and dried with care, and the washing is what keeps the fruit crisp and open: bright without turning sharp, with a rounded mouthfeel holding it in balance. We roast to Depth 42, medium, to keep that fruit while still building enough sweetness and structure for espresso. Go darker and the fruit is what you lose.
-
Filter first
Start with a pour-over or an AeroPress and taste it black. It also pulls a sweet, fruit-led espresso, red apple, toffee and milk chocolate, and a flat white is one of the ways we brew it. It is not a dark, heavy cup. For that, go to Agni 03.

Ask us
05questionsIs Vyom 01 sour?
It is bright, not sharp. Expect green apple and muskmelon with golden caramel under them. If a cup tastes sour, grind finer or use hotter water. If it tastes bitter, grind coarser.
Can I use it for espresso and flat whites?
Yes. As espresso it is red apple, toffee and milk chocolate, and a flat white is one of the ways we brew it. Start at 18 g in and 40 g out, and taste it black before you add milk. It will be sweeter and lighter than a dark roast.
Which grind should I choose?
Choose the grind for your brewer when you add it to the cart: whole bean, home or commercial espresso machine, South Indian filter, AeroPress, moka pot, pour-over, Chemex, French press or cold brew. We grind exactly what you pick and cannot un-grind it, so if you are unsure, order whole bean.
How fresh will it be, and how long does delivery take?
It is roasted after you order, in New Delhi. Most orders leave us within 1–2 working days, up to 4 in a heavy roast week. Couriers then usually take 2–4 working days to the metros and 4–7 to the rest of India. Shipping is free.
Can I return it?
A correctly supplied bag cannot be returned for a change of mind, because it was roasted for you. If it arrives damaged, wrong or stale, tell us within 48 hours and we will replace or refund it. On your first order, the First Bag Promise gives you one free swap within 7 days of delivery.
