How it sits among coffee from India

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe coffee from India: 193 of 515 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Olisipo Coffee Roasters describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, nutty. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from India; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from India, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

“All of our coffees are packed in metal-free oxygen barrier one-way valve bags that are 100% recyclable.” their page (opens in a new tab)

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
