The Craftsmanship

• Traditional Natural Drying: The craft of the "C" grade begins with the same high-altitude cherries as our AA grades. Spread across clean brick patios in the Western Ghats, the cherries are manually raked and turned throughout the day. This sun-drying process is carefully managed to ensure that even these smaller beans reach an optimal, stable moisture level without fermentation taints.

• Shade-Grown Heritage: Cultivated under the natural forest canopy of Karnataka, the coffee cherries ripen slowly. This slow maturation ensures that even the smallest beans develop the high density and essential oils required for a quality cup of Indian Arabica.

• Mechanical and Manual Precision: After being de-husked, the coffee undergoes precision mechanical sifting to isolate the Screen 14 profile. This is followed by a manual sorting process to remove foreign matter and significant defects. This human touch ensures that our Arabica Cherry C remains a clean, reliable, and "roaster-ready" product for international buyers.
