Lot GEMS 5126: Brix Delight: Grapefruit, juicy, dark chocolate, candy gooseberry
At 1128 meters above sea level, P. Rammurthy's coffee plot in Gurra Garuvu village greets visitors with a lush canopy of fruit and forest trees. What was once land for subsistence farming now flourishes as a high-yielding coffee paradise.
Among his peers, Rammurthy stands out for his record-breaking Grade 1 quality coffee cherries this year, a result of his commitment to regenerative farm management practices. Like all coffees in Araku, his precious beans underwent rigorous quality checks upon arrival at the Coffee Processing Unit (CPU).
Sweetness aka Brix reading is a crucial quality parameter. GEMS 5126 boasts an impressive Brix score of 19 and the cup reveals notes of spice, tartness, floral hints, whiskey, sparkling and orange.
