Scarlet Honey Coffee
Scarlet Honey Coffee is a distinguished specialty coffee microlot grown in the hills of Koraput, Odisha. This award-winning Arabica coffee reflects careful cultivation, controlled processing, and an uncompromising focus on cup quality.
Produced at an elevation of 3,200 feet using the Chandragiri varietal, the coffee undergoes an extended 48-hour anaerobic honey fermentation. This meticulous process enhances sweetness, structure, and flavour clarity while preserving balance in the final cup.
Following fermentation, the beans are slow-dried on raised beds with their honey-process mucilage intact. As a result, the fruit character and natural sweetness develop gradually. The coffee then rests before milling to further refine consistency and flavour complexity.
The cup opens with vibrant notes of strawberry and red apple. Layers of almond and soft caramel sweetness follow, creating a balanced and elegant profile. The finish is smooth, lingering, and exceptionally clean.
