Ratnagiri Natural

Check out this wild and awesome coffee from Southwestern India!

Wild because this coffee is left to ferment for 90 hours, which can sometimes result in coffees tasting "over-processed" or unclean, however, producers Ashok and Divya Patre have so much control over the process that their coffees turn out remarkably clean, complex, and interesting! Which is awesome.

Ashok is a 3rd generation producer at his family's 108 hectare farm, Ratnagiri, in Chikmagalur at 1,335 meters above sea level where they have been growing specialty coffee and fine pepper for nearly a century.  He and his wife Divya have developed the farm into one of the most impressive operations Osito (importers of this coffee) has seen across the coffee-producing world! Knowing that the terrior in India is somewhat limiting, Mr. Patre has invested in precise processing methods that produce coffees that are unique and compelling.
