What does ‘Blue Tokai’ stand for or why does it known as blue coffee ?
‘Tokai’ is known as the ancient Malabari originated word meaning the tail of a peacock. The name ‘tokai’ do’ represents the very importances of the Malabar region where rumours started spreading about, The British spotted a peacock for the very first time.

Basically, it started from the city of Goa southward, which is also known as the border on the east by the Western Ghats range. It is located in India Kerala, Karnataka.
How does freshness relate to blue tokai coffee quality?
Most of the flavor and aroma components that create delicious coffee are extremely fragile. Start to break down within a few weeks of roasting. Most commercial coffee which is available has to be roasted weeks. If not then months ago in bulk roasting facilities had to enter through a chain of intermediaries before shipping to the customer. When a person opens the bag, the beans are stale automatically. We do things differently. ‘Blue tokai’ roasts coffee for 5 straight days. Monday through Friday and prepared to ship it out the very next day. So this way the coffee doesn’t lose its freshness. Can be enjoyed by the customer every morning.
And fun fact at the same time. Coffee can have the benefit of being too fresh. As the carbon dioxide present in coffee can be created during the roasting process. Which needs to be released from every single bean in order for the coffee to brew properly or perfectly. For the lighter roasts it’s suitable for manual brewing, which means the coffee will be ready to be shipped to the customer. Exactly 2 to 3 days after being roasted. While darker roasts suitable for espresso, which are known to be the best after resting at least for 4-5 days.
Arabica Specialty Grade Beans.
‘Blue tokai coffee’ uses Arabica special grade beans. Which are the highest-quality coffee beans available in the world currently. Fun fact these coffee beans must exhibit distinctive attributes in 1 or more then 1 of the following areas such as:
- Aroma.
- Flavor.
- Acidity.
- Body.
Robusta coffee beans are most commonly planted coffee in India. But the best Robusta beans are the most inferior coffee quality compared to the best Arabica beans. So basically Blue Tokai Coffee is made up of the highest quality coffee known as Arabica beans. Coffee is grown mostly in south west India due to the climate.
Best Ways To Store Coffee.
Oxygen and moisture are known as the coffee’s biggest enemies. The real reason why coffee gets hard like rock. Keeping coffee in the fridge is totally not recommended. Especially because condensation present in the fridge pulls all oils to the surface of the coffee.
Which breaks down the property of the coffee. Also coffee is a highly absorbent substance and will absorb all the smells of other food items present in the fridge. Ideally, it’s highly recommended that you should buy coffee every 2 weeks and store it in a good airtight container. In case the container is transparent or translucent, you should never place it in sunlight or regular light. Try placing it in a cupboard or a dark cool area.
Difference Between Indian Coffee And Other Country Coffee.
The Indian farms are known as gems of India due to India being one of the largest agricultural countries in the world. Indian’s source of coffee is a grown specialty coffee. Which is known to be the highest quality of coffee globally. India’s tea culture and the more recent introduction of instant coffee (which means they are usually cheaper, low grade coffee beans) is the reason why India’s coffee is still somewhat undiscovered. Although select Indian coffee farms are mostly starting to gain recognition abroad but still not well known in the other countries.
