Coffee Process

Process

Washed

Varietal

Catuai

Elevation

1340 masl

The Catuai varietal is de-pulped, washed, and fermented for 48–72 hours using a highly controlled fermentation process developed by Mr. Patre and his team. Through ongoing research and scientifically driven practices, each batch is carefully monitored using microbial analysis and acidity measurements, allowing fermentation to be guided with remarkable precision. Following fermentation, the coffee is then dried on raised beds, resulting in a clean, complex, and distinctive cup.

PRODUCER

Ashok and Divya Patre at Ratnagiri Estate

Region

Chikmagalur, India

Founded in 1927 and family-owned for nearly a century, the Ratnagiri Estate is located in the foothills of Karnataka’s Western Ghats. The name “Ratnagiri,” meaning “Pearl Mountains,” reflects the estate’s canopy of silver oak trees. Today, third-generation producer Ashok Patre and his wife Divya continue the family’s legacy, combining agricultural knowledge with innovative processing methods to produce some of India’s cleanest specialty coffees. Through careful fermentation, advanced equipment, and a team that includes microbiologists, Ratnagiri maintains clarity, sweetness, and complexity in every cup.

What if my package is delayed?

Sometimes our shipping partners experience delays due to weather, heightened demand, technical issues, pandemics, or aliens. All of which is out of our hands, except the aliens, but that's not for here.

If your package is delayed, let us know and we'll track it down and escalate its delivery. If it's delayed more than 2 weeks past the shipment date, and your order includes coffee, we'll either refund your money or ship you fresh coffee at no cost.
Can my coffee be ground?

By you? Yes. By us, sadly, no. Currently, we can only ship whole-bean coffee.
When will my order ship?

Freshness is critical to fully enjoying coffee. We roast to order to ensure your coffee is at peak freshness when it arrives. We roast to order and ship Monday-Thursday. Orders are usually fulfilled the production day after they are placed (for example, orders placed on Monday will ship on Tuesday). Orders placed Thursday-Sunday will be fulfilled and shipped on Monday.
