ARAKU Micro Climate is 100% Arabica

Grown in a rare terroir, like the riverine island of Baankubedda, distinguished by gentle slopes, diversely shaded highland microplots. This coffee is a natural process.

Process
Natural

Process

Natural Process

Natural process, which yields our Signature, Grand Reserve, High Altitude and Micro Climate coffees. In the natural coffee process, the full cherry is dried prior to de-pulping. Natural processed coffee will taste fruitier and have a heavier body as the drying coffee beans absorb some of the sugars from the surrounding fruit.

 

Honey Process

Pulp-sundried or honey coffee is an eco-friendly process as it generates very little solid and liquid waste. The fruity and sweet notes of ARAKU’s Selection and High Altitude blends are due to the presence of mucilage in the honey-processed coffee. Here, the coffee skin is removed and the coffee is de-pulped to varying degrees but no mucilage is removed and it is sent to the drying yard. The honey process is a rare and unique system that is almost exclusively used by specialty coffee producers as it is simple, affordable and intuitive.

 

 

Washed Process

Early Harvest is a washed coffee — these coffees are prized for their clarity and vibrant notes. The coffee cherries go through the Columbian Penagos pulper that removes the sticky mucilage surrounding the coffee seeds, and the coffee is left to ferment for 18-24 hours. Then the coffee is washed in fresh water and sent to the drying yard — removing the cherry prior to drying allows the bean’s intrinsic flavours to really shine. In the semi-washed process, which is also used for ARAKU’s Signature blend, some of the mucilage remains and after fermentation, the beans are sent to the drying yard. The mucilage lends mild sweet and fruit notes to the semi-washed coffee.


Terroir
2789 to 2854 feet

Terroir

Micro Climate is sourced primarily from the riverine island of Baankubedda, surrounded by water and aerated by a refreshing wind, it houses just about 34 families. The coffee benefits from the incredible biodiversity, rare insects, and regenerative agricultural practices on these plots. The soil is compact, dark brown with scattered medium to big rocks.

Chandrakala Limkiya, one of several tribal farmers cultivating ARAKU’s rare Micro Climate coffee. She lives in Baankubedda village with her husband, Gangadhar, and three sons (all educated), who support the family in carrying forward the legacy of coffee cultivation. Her plot on this riverine island is accessible only by small boats. The island has been growing coffee since 1999 and is one the farthest villages governed by the farmers’ co-op, known as Small and Marginal Tribal Farmers Mutually Aided Cooperative Society. During the harvest season, Chandrakala makes multiple trips in her wooden boat to pluck the reddest red cherries.

A Lively Cup

Micro Climate is like a warm tropical fruit infusion — bright, vibrant, and full of character. The fruit-forward notes bring a lively sweetness with a gentle tang that keeps each sip interesting, while the overall profile feels expressive and unique. It’s not a quiet cup, but one that stands out for its complexity — rewarding if you enjoy coffees with a bold, distinctive personality.

Beautiful cup of berry notes

Its really nuanced and carefully articulated profile; Its light, fruity and full of aroma, although preserving this aroma during brew is quite a skill for this lighter roast but the bitterness is difficult to get seeped into the brew. Also worth mentioning that I really liked the packaging as well, the farmer postcard and aroma slit and secure packaging, nice.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review for our product, Micro Climate. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the light and fruity note. Thank you for choosing Micro Climate and we hope to continue providing you with a delicious and satisfying cup of coffee.

Great taste!

We tried it as a pour over and it turned out fine. The chocolate flavour was evident from the pack itself. We also tried to make home made vietnamese iced coffee and it also turned out great. I would recommend this and would buy again.

A Delightful Coffee Experience: Micro Climate is a Must-Try!

I recently tried Micro Climate coffee and it's a new favorite! The aroma is incredibly inviting – rich, mellow, and intensely fruity, promising a truly special cup.

Whether brewed as a filtered coffee, pour-over, or French Press, it consistently offers a generous body with delightful, wholesome notes of candied fruit. It's unique, smooth, and a pleasure with every sip.

Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful experience with our Micro Climate coffee. We are thrilled to hear that it has become your new favorite! We look forward to serving you again soon.

Tastes really good.

It's good really good. But why does it show medium roast on the website here but actually being a medium dark roast in real on the coffee pouch?

Hi Ashutosh, thank you for making the time to share your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the coffee.

Just to clarify, the ARAKU Coffee Micro Climate is a medium roast. On the side panels of the pouch we include details of our other coffees too. The one you noticed is ARAKU Coffee Selection, which is a medium dark roast. Hope this clears it up.
