Traditionally used as ballast on sailing ships travelling to Europe in the 17th and 18th century the sea water gave the Arabica beans a distinct flavour. Today it's mild acidity, heavy bodied taste and sweetness is attained through a weathering process which can take from 2 to 6 years.
The green coffee beans which are milled but not yet roasted and are then exposed to the region’s moist, warm air throughout the rainy season. The "monsooning" process results in a strengthening of the coffee's taste, and weakening of the acidity. There is also a distinct colour change from the original green tint of the coffee beans to a light brown colour hence the name.
This roast is truly unique in spiciness, musky complex aromas are matched by the rustic earthy flavour. The long finish and big body makes this coffee especially impressive.
