Our rarest SKU. And the one that changes how your customers think about Indian coffee forever. Cherry Pick is a limited natural-process microlot from Ratnagiri Estate — "Pearl Mountain" — one of the most celebrated specialty farms in India and one of the only estates in Karnataka not planted under British colonial rule. The Patre family has stewarded this land since 1927. At 1,250–1,450 meters above sea level, silver oak trees shade coffee grown alongside cardamom and black pepper — a polyculture that defines the estate's extraordinary terroir. After harvest, cherries undergo anaerobic fermentation in sealed stainless steel tanks — a process that concentrates fruit sugars and develops the vivid, wine-like sweetness Cherry Pick is known for. The result is SCA 85+ certified specialty coffee that competes directly with the finest Ethiopian naturals and Kenyan SLs — but brings an origin story no other US brand can tell. asting notes: Sweet apple · Cherry jam · Milk chocolate Medium roast. Clean, bright, complex. The proof is in the numbers: Selected by Fellow Products for their coveted Drops program — the most discerning specialty coffee audience in America. Sold out 1,600+ bags in a single day. Customers who discover Cherry Pick become evangelists. Why this commands $24 at retail: Cherry Pick sits in a category most American specialty buyers have never explored — Indian natural-process microlots.
