Blue Tokai - Kalledeverapura pulp sun dried


Tasted in pour over 

This coffee is from Kalledevarapura estate, which is at a height of 4400 feet above sea level, in Babadungiri hills, Chikamagalur, Karnataka. 

It tastes quite sour and has grapefruit and raisin tastes notes, but what is much more exciting for me is the the after or the last taste of coffee sip which is very nutty (or roasted almonds as the packet mentions). The nutty after taste is quite complimentary to the sour taste which you get in the first sip of coffee. The process of sun drying helps it to develop this fruity-sour taste and the fact that it is a medium roast, gives it a nutty tail to it. 

Comparing it to the the Quick brown coffee roasters - Baarbara Baba Budangiri (which is from the same region), because Baarbara is a light roast it gives quite a sweet after taste but Kalledevarapura being a medium roast gives quite a nutty after taste 

This is one of the most fascinating thing about coffee I think, it plays in your mouth giving very dramatic taste with the time and allows you to experience it in a many different ways in the entire time period you drinking it.
