Best enjoyed
Classic Coffee sources used barrels from Indian distillers and lets their specialty Arabica rest inside them, allowing the residual whisky and oak to work their way into the beans over time. The cup is subtle and layered: hints of Irish cream, a surprising brightness from green apple, and tropical fruit notes that shift as the temperature drops. Not heavy-handed or artificially flavoured the way cheaper barrel-aged coffees can be. Best drunk black, slowly, as a pour-over or cold brew where the nuance has room to show itself. An unusual and genuinely gift-worthy coffee from one of Bangalore's most respected roasters.

New to coffee? Good questions to ask
How should I drink Whisky Barrel Aged Coffee?
Classic Coffee lists this coffee as best enjoyed aeropress or beans or cold brew or espresso or filter or french press or moka pot or pourover, based on its roast and flavour profile.
What does a "Medium" roast mean?
A balanced middle ground - some of the bean's original fruit and floral notes remain, rounded out by a mellower, slightly nutty or caramel sweetness from the roast.
What does "single estate" mean?
This coffee comes from one specific farm, Harley Estate, rather than a blend of several farms or regions - so what you're tasting is the character of that one place.
