Every bag is stamped with the Tuesday it was roasted.

  1. Tuesday

    Roast day in Madikeri

    Twelve-kilo batches on a drum roaster at the roastery on Kadagadal Road. Three coffees a month, each profiled for how most of you brew it.

  2. Wednesday

    Rest, bag, and leave by road

    The beans degas for a day before they are bagged with a one-way valve. The van goes out through Mysuru at 4 pm.

  3. Friday

    At your door

    Chennai, Bengaluru and Coimbatore by Friday evening. Madurai, Kochi and Trichy by Monday. Three to seven days off roast is when we like it most.

Not sure which bag? Three questions, about a minute.

How you brew, whether you take milk, and whether you lean fruity or chocolatey. That is enough for us to pick a bag and grind it right.

One price, by the bag.

Subscribers pay ₹40 less per 250 g and never pay delivery. One-off orders pay delivery of ₹60 outside Chennai, Bengaluru and Coimbatore.

No minimum term. Skip a delivery until the Sunday before roast day, or pause for up to three months.

“I used to buy whatever the supermarket had and wonder why my French press tasted like cardboard. Fourteen Kettl deliveries later, the Sunday morning cup is the thing I look forward to.”
Arjun Sethuraman — Besant Nagar, Chennai · 500 g every four weeks, French press grind

Next roast is Tuesday 8 September.

Order by Sunday night and it is on the van on Wednesday.
