【Comment from Web】
Uprising demand for GOLDEN coffee beans, India start producing so called MONSOON COFFEE, using monsoon, subtropical westerlies, in May to June. Unwashed Arabica beans are spread in 4-6 inches thick, mixed once a while to expose evenly to moisture, on the floor of well ventilated storehouse for 4-5days to dry. After they are bagged, pile up and line with enough space to keep monsoon air to go through. For 5 -6 weeks, un-bag/re-bag beans or rearrange bags about a once a week until beans turn to golden brown. These processes give Monsoon beans unique aroma and inspiring soft/rich taste.
【Impression】
Light, smooth, mild taste which well harmonized bitterness and sweetness, with clear aftertaste.
Very impressive and balanced light taste. Unlike its appearance, this light cinnamon color beans has rich flavor even light roast like high roast. This golden beans gives very soothing and refreshing feeling with each sip but settled in taste.
Iprefer to pair this cup with Almond Tuiles, thin & crispy French almond cookies, or something very light but flavorful sweets. Recommended for a morning cup, on a nice, fresh and beautiful early-summer morning.
