This coffee is an SLN 795 Arabica from the Gungegiri Estate in the Chandra-Drona hills of Chikmagalur, India. It undergoes a 78-hour anaerobic fermentation process inoculated with Lactobacillus and Pichia yeast strains, followed by natural drying on raised beds for 12-15 days. The cup profile is vibrant and layered, featuring tasting notes of blackberry jam, starfruit, and caramel. It is suitable for both filter and espresso brewing methods.
Launched in 2025 as a project by The Roasters Pack, Coffee Wallas is an Asian owned Toronto roastery dedicated to spotlighting specialty coffee from across Asia. The name roughly translates to "People of Coffee," capturing the mission to celebrate diverse Asian coffee profiles that are often underrepresented in the specialty world. Their lineup features origins from Vietnam, Myanmar, Laos, China, and Papua New Guinea, including innovative processing methods like pichia yeast fermentation and anaerobic naturals. Roasted in Toronto and shipped across Canada and the US, Coffee Wallas brings a fresh perspective to the conversation about where exceptional specialty coffee comes from.
