This honey processed chandragiri variety Education Lot showcases both the distinct plant genetics of India and the unique processing approaches being pursued at Ratnagiri Estate in India. True to producer Ashok Patre’s innovative spirit, this lot was fermented in cherry for 48 hours in flushed stainless steel tanks with the addition of inoculated lab microbes before being pulped and slowly dried on raised beds for 22 days. We taste mild red fruits in the cup reminiscent of red pear and red grape, as well as a mild clementine-like acidity and a rich hazelnut finish.
