How it sits among coffee from India
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.

A further 4 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
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.
