SHASTHA FOODS Cothas Traditional South Indian Speciality Blend is a 454g filter coffee powder blended at 85% coffee and 15% chicory for a bold, aromatic cup rooted in South Indian heritage.
This 454g pack offers an authentic filter coffee blend inspired by South Indian traditions: a higher coffee proportion for pronounced flavor balanced with chicory for smoothness. Roasted to bring out deep aroma and a strong, full-bodied finish, the mix suits those who prefer a robust morning brew or a classic filter coffee experience at home. The blend is formulated to work well with metal filter tumblers, stainless steel dhabbas, and traditional filter plates.
What does the 85% coffee and 15% chicory ratio deliver in taste?
The elevated coffee percentage intensifies the roast character and aftertaste, while the chicory rounds out bitterness and adds caramel-like notes. Together they create a full-flavored cup with a lingering finish rather than a sharp, one-dimensional roast.
- 85% premium roasted coffee beans: bold body and pronounced aroma
- 15% chicory: softens acidity, enhances mouthfeel
- Balanced finish: strong but smooth, suitable for filter brewing
How should I prepare this blend for traditional South Indian filter coffee?
Use fresh, boiling water and a standard South Indian metal filter for best results. Allow the decoction to draw slowly, then mix with hot milk and sweetener to taste for the signature cup.
- Measure: 2–3 tablespoons of powder per filter for a strong decoction
- Brewing: pour hot water over the packed powder, let decoction drip for 10–15 minutes
- Serving: combine decoction with hot milk (1:2 to 1:3 ratio) and sugar as desired
What makes this pack suitable for gifting or everyday use?
The 454g size is practical for daily consumption without frequent repurchasing, and the traditional blend reflects regional authenticity that appeals to enthusiasts and newcomers. It’s a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys classic Indian coffee culture.
- 454g pack: enough for multiple weeks of daily cups for one person
