Bengaluru-based The Caffeine Baar (TCB), one of India’s most experimentative specialty coffee brands, blending chemistry and experimentation with single-origin, high-grown Arabica coffee beans from 120-year-old Baarbara Estate in Chikmagalur, launches ‘Elements 2021 - a collection of three new packaged specialty coffee beans - Carbonic Maceration, Anaerobic Fermentation, and Orange Fermentation.
According to the company, this assorted range of packed coffee beans are the result of varied experimentations, perfected over a period of time. They are inspired by the wine industry bringing ‘the chemistry of coffee’ to the forefront of each consumer’s experience. The aroma and tastes amalgamate to give you a whole new experience of artisan coffee.
Carbonic Maceration, as the name says, includes a process in which the pulped coffee cherries are processed with carbon dioxide to induce bright, winey flavor notes. Carbonic Maceration is a new process in the Indian specialty coffee industry and one of the most unique offerings for coffee connoisseurs in the country.
Anaerobic Fermentation, includes an interesting process, where the coffee cherries are processed in a fully sealed and oxygen-deprived fermentation tank, which is further slowly dried to attain ideal moisture content for nutty and sweet flavor notes.
Orange Fermentation, a bonus to coffee and orange lovers as both flavors are blended together which can be tasted with these special coffee beans. In the process, the pulped coffee is fermented with fresh orange to attain citrusy and floral flavor notes.
Co-founded by Poojya Prasad, a passionate Coffee Sommelier, The Caffeine Baar aims to introduce the fourth wave of coffee evolution in India.
