In the past, India has been known for its Monsoon Malabar coffees, and other low-quality offerings, but several farmers, like the Patre family with whom we partner, are incredibly forward-thinking and quality focused. Add this passion for quality to the richness of the soil, and the perfect coffee-growing climate, and the results can be amazing.
The Patre family have been the custodians of the Ratnagiri Estate in Bababudangiri for three generations. Baba Budan introduced coffee culture into the region in the 16th century and the mountain range was later named after him. It is grown at the top of Ratnagiri, or the Pearl Mountain, under a canopy of shade. It is a biodiverse farm that also has an official Rainforest Alliance certification. Bursting with rich flavours, coffee from this region often has a deep, rich, chocolatey taste. The flavour profile of brown sugar, hazelnut and milk chocolate from Kiss From a Roast make this coffee a firm customer favourite, and we’re looking forward to continuing to roast this coffee for years to come.
