Our coffee grid is designed to help you quickly find the perfect coffee for your taste
and brew method.
At Toby's, we've developed a tasting tool called "THE GRID". This measures the intensity
of the four key attributes found in espresso: acidity, flavour, finish, and mouthfeel.
Each coffee and blend is assigned an intensity level for each attribute and it must hit
this level before it can be released for sale. Our confidence in this program comes from
having a fixed recipe for each coffee, allowing us to understand and taste any changes
in environment, roast, or coffee quality.
Description
Ratnagiri Estate sits in the Western Ghats of South India, near Bababudangiri — one of the regions associated with the origins of coffee in India. The Patre family has farmed here since 1927, with Ashok Patre now leading the estate and pushing Indian coffee into more experimental territory.
In the cup, expect bright citrus notes, backed by a silky texture. It’s not the kind of profile you might expect from an Indian coffee — and that’s exactly what makes it interesting. It’s unique enough to keep you curious, but still incredibly easy to drink, with more sweetness and roundness as it ages. We don't have Indian coffees much on our rotation, so enjoy it while its here.
