Zingerman’s Coffee Company, Roaster’s Pick! Mysore Nuggets (Ossoor Estates)
We’ve been a big fan of Indian coffees since we started roasting. This coffee is from the Ossoor Estates in Manjarabad and is a new find for us. This crop is the best Indian coffee we’ve had in 5 years.
It has a wonderfully rich body; hints of sweet and warming spices (think cardamom); and a long clean finish. It is grown between 3,000 and 3,250 feet elevation on a 120 year old farm. The term “nugget” is believed to come from the gold mining that once took place in this region.
