Microlot Coffee

Microlot Coffee

“Microlot” is the new buzzword that’s getting thrown around in the coffee industry left right and centre. So what exactly is and is not a microlot coffee?

Small lot of trees usually yield only a small amount of coffee, around 40 bags yearly. The growers and producers identify that is has a special quality (85+ cupping score) so they give more time and attention to developing it’s uniqueness. Microlots are harvested from a particular plot of land, band of altitude and processed in a separate way from the rest of the coffee from the farm, to amplify their special qualities. 

A microlot is NOT just a small lot of coffee, or a larger lot divided up into smaller bags to sell. The term also means that there has been investigative and experimental input by the buyer, grower or both, to produce a coffee with special characteristics.

During the late 19th century, while India was under British rule, coffee was regularly shipped to Europe. Coffee was exposed to the damp and humid monsoon conditions while it was stored on barges and transported from India to Europe.

This caused the coffee beans to swell, become pale in color, and also altered their taste. In this way, Monsoon Malabar coffee was discovered. The raw beans are exposed to the annual monsoon humidity in India for around 3 to 4 months.

This reduces the acidity of coffee beans and gives them a unique earthy flavor.

Roast: Light to medium roast coffee
