India Mysore Nuggets Chikmagalur District India: Mysore Nuggets, Chikmagalur District

This coffee is one of the sweetest I've roasted. It has a dense mouthfeel and develops a roasty overtone like mild cloves when taken just into second crack. LIke the 2013 review, "hot cocoa" is a good description of the lingering aftertaste. It's very smooth with low acidity when brewed at 175°F, and it doesn't have the overpowering funky, earthy top end of some Sumatras that need to be compensated by taking them further into second crack. Similar coffees have more distillates than this one. It will delight my friends who favor dark roasts and will be surprised it can be this smooth, mellow and flavorful all at the same time.

The very first impressions of the @coffeebeancorral Mysore (mee-zore) is that the cup is a very transitional cup. At first the flavor immediately reminds me of a Monsoon Malabar. Once I’ve had a few sips my palate settles down. The flavors made me think this was a blend of the best Ethiopian Natty and a malabar. There is a fruitiness bordering on juicy that mixes well but stands alone with the earthy Malabar flavors. As the cup cools a spiciness becomes apparent. The earthiness is still prevalent but a sweetness is also reminiscent of a great PNG. After only performing one roast on my popper and having one cup of this coffee I would absolutely recommend you purchase this coffee. That said, if you have not had a Monsooned Malabar yet order this along with the Mysore. I would highly recommend that you roast and drink the Malabar first. Go through at-least a half pound and then try the Mysore. I have just enough roasted to have one more cup tomorrow morning. This review will be continued. My brew was 465g(tap water)/30g/Chemex. Baratza Encore on 28.

Roasted start of 2nd crack. The beans swell larger than most. As a drip coffee has a bold earthy aroma. Serves a good base coffee for milk, creamer or flavors. In Southern India often brewed with chicory.

"WOW!" That was the very first thing my brain yelled when I first tasted the Mysore Nugget. The flavor is very deep and rich. Extra Bold is a good description. I roasted it to Full-City, I ground the beans very fine (Turkish style), and I used 2 ounces of ground for a 12 cup pot. The coffee this produced was a full bodied and flavored brew that is comparable to any of the large chains' brews. This cup was begging to be drank! I am very pleased with this coffee and I am looking forward to sharing it with guests.

I've been roasting for about two years so I'm no expert but this is a nice coffee. Not my favorite, that would be Costa Rican La Magnolia Tres Rios, but really good. I roast everything to "just into second crack". Maybe 20 - 30 seconds on a Behmor 1600. If you are a novice coffee roaster, get this coffee! Why? Glad you asked. Sometimes identifying cracks can be difficult but Indian Mysore leaves no doubt. Both first and second are very easy to hear. Enjoy the cup and keep roasting.

This is a great coffee. Roasted to light medium. Mineral, grassy, nice body, rich chocolate. toffee, caramel, some vegetal. some slight acidity, maybe fruits. milk and sugar brings out some nice creaminess, but lose acidity.

This is are go to coffee. We drink it daily. When we go out to breakfast the wife can't stand the taste of very few of the offerings. I have had to stop her from bringing in our travel cups. We have tried many different beans and this is the one we always come back to. Roast to just the start of the second crack for best flavor. Additionally an Indian workmate states the correct pronunciation is My Sore.

I thought I was roasting a Yirgachefe bean. Medium roast. After two days brewed a cup. WTH? Not good at all. Then I discovered, that bag was Mysore Nuggets. Well, I figured, should have roasted longer. Maybe could stir it in a frying pan? I didn't, I ignored it for two weeks. When I tried it today and I found it was very good. The pay-off of procrastination!

I am genuinely surprised by this unique bean. 4/5 stars for me. A real surprise. Easy roast, no negative sirorises. I've finished to 405F all the way up to 445f, and all have had there own unique positive qualities. Can't beat the price either.

This is a perennial favorite and the current crop maintains the standard. At a medium roast it's full-bodied and the combination of acidity and sweetness is balanced and suggests vanilla. Other flavors notes are cloves and a hint of cedar. The The long finish is cedar. Keith described this as a mellow, rich coffee, and I agree. It will also hold up well in milk, and I look forward to trying it as espresso or an espresso component combined with a Brazil and maybe something fruity or floral.

This India coffee may just be my favorite coffee I have ever ordered from CBC. I roast it in an air popper half way between 1st & 2nd crack. The aftertaste is where it's at with this coffee.

These are my favorite beans. Wonderful cup of coffee, never disappoints

Light roasted, great everyday coffee. I prefer nutty tones and this coffee hits the mark.

This is my go to bean fir my own personal coffee. Love it.

Hands down my favorite bean. Never bitter, even when roasted well into second crack

Roasted just into the first few cracks of second crack. Smooth, with notes of chocolate and spices. Really enjoyed trying this one out.

When I think of India, I think of tea, exotic spices and vibrant colors. Now I'll add coffee! This coffee is bold and full of flavor. A great way to start the day or a midday boost. So many wonderful flavors in one cup. Delicious!
