The Dark Side Speciality Blend

ORIGIN OF THE DARK ROAST SPECIALITY BLEND

Our dark side coffee blends two single origin coffees to bring out a unique flavour profile that is a testament to the innovative processing techniques employed. Our monsoon aged origin beans originate from the southwestern coast of India, in which these beans undergo a specialised ageing process that was discovered accidentally during the colonial era.

Ships transporting coffee from India to Europe would take up to six months, during which the beans, exposed to the monsoon’s high humidity, swelled and aged, significantly altering their character.

Today, this natural process is meticulously recreated by storing the beans in open-sided warehouses, allowing the moist, warm winds of the monsoon to pass through, resulting in a coffee that is lower in acidity, with a full-bodied flavour that is cherished by connoisseurs around the globe.
