India - dark roasted magic

India was growing coffee before it was growing tea.

Coffee arrived in India in the 1600s, more than 200 years before tea — and today the country is one of the world’s major coffee producers.

This is robusta in all its unapologetic glory. Grown by smallholder farmers at 700–1,200 metres and naturally processed, the ripe coffee cherries are handpicked before being dried whole, helping create a deep, heavy and distinctive cup.

Expect something dark and intense, with pungent notes of liquorice and fresh tobacco. If you loved our Vietnamese robusta, this sits firmly in the same world — big-bodied, low-acidity coffee that isn't trying to be delicate.

Robusta gets overlooked. We think that's exactly why it's worth celebrating.
