Forest Nectar is a single-estate anaerobically fermented Liberica crafted from carefully selected cherries grown at our award-winning Elkhill Estates in Coorg. Through an extended 72-hour anaerobic fermentation followed by 30 days of slow drying on raised beds, the coffee develops its distinctive tropical character, mellow sweetness, and beautifully rounded structure. The name reflects both the rich biodiversity of the forested landscape in which it is grown and the nectar-like sweetness that emerges through the unhurried rhythm of the process that shapes it.
Mellow, juicy, and beautifully rounded, this coffee reveals notes of ripe jackfruit and sweet molasses carried by a smooth, full-bodied texture. Gentle tropical sweetness unfolds gracefully across the palate, supported by remarkable balance and clarity. A long, lingering finish, marked by soft sweetness and refined depth, leaves a rich and enduring impression from the first sip to the last.
Patiently crafted through an extended anaerobic washed process, this coffee begins with carefully selected, fully ripe cherries that are pulped and fermented with their mucilage intact for 36 hours. This controlled fermentation enhances sweetness, body, and complexity while preserving remarkable clarity and balance in the cup. Following washing and a secondary dry fermentation, the parchment is slowly dried on raised beds for approximately 18 days, allowing its character to develop gradually and harmoniously. The result is a beautifully refined coffee distinguished by its sweetness, structure, and elegant depth of flavour.
