Robusta Cherry PB Green Bean (Unwashed)

Sensory Profile

• Aroma: Intense and pungent with heavy notes of toasted malt, spice, and a hint of dark fruit.

• Acidity: Crisp and more pronounced than flat-bean Robustas; the natural processing adds a soft, fruity undertone to its bright character.

• Body: Powerfully heavy and velvety. Due to its high density, it produces a luxurious, thick crema that is the benchmark for traditional espresso blends.

• Tasting Notes: A concentrated and savoury profile featuring deep notes of bittersweet chocolate, black pepper, and caramelised sugar. It offers a cleaner, more vibrant sweetness than standard Robustas, with a long, satisfying finish.

The Craftsmanship

• Shade-Grown Concentration: Sourced from the high-altitude estates of the Western Ghats, these Peaberries mature under a two-tier forest canopy. This slow maturation allows the single seed to absorb a higher concentration of nutrients and essential oils, resulting in a bean of exceptional density and flavour intensity.

• Artisanal Natural Drying: The craft lies in the patient dehydration of the whole cherry on elevated drying mats or clean brick patios. The cherries are manually hand-raked and turned every hour to ensure the single Peaberry inside absorbs the fruit's natural sugars uniformly, preventing any fermentation defects.

• The Precision Grade: Because Peaberries are harvested alongside flat beans, the isolation process is a work of precision. Following mechanical sifting through specialised circular-hole screens, the beans undergo exhaustive manual hand-sorting. Our artisans ensure that the final lot is composed of perfectly uniform, rounded "pearls," ensuring a flawless and consistent roast every time.
