CUP PROFILE

ABOUT OUR TAG* ROAST

With over four decades of expertise in green bean selection, roasting, and cupping, our TAG Roast (Torrefazione Artigianale Granito) is crafted to bring out the fullest potential of each single-origin coffee. Through a meticulous roasting process, we achieve the complete caramelization of the sugars in the beans, unlocking their rich, complex flavors. This artful transformation relies on the perfect balance of expertise, passion, intuition, and the keen insight of our Master Roaster.

ABOUT THE PLANTATION

Our India Monsoon Malabar coffee beans originate from the Shevaroys region of southern India.

The great distinction of this region for coffee production remains its monsoon process. When goods were transported by sailboats, a journey through Europe spanned several months, often hot and humid. Affected by this intense humidity, the taste and color of the beans were transformed. The green beans turned yellowish and the taste very particular.

Today "monsoon" coffee is recreated by spreading the beans out in the open air and open-roofed warehouses during the monsoon season.
