They’ve introduced “Cascucha,” a fizzy, low-caffeine, fermented Cascara cherry tea that defies tradition. Craft Coffee also explores fusion coffee recipes like Cranberry Cold Brew and Orange Cold Brew while offering a smooth and gentle cold brew experience. This Coffee Day will witness the debut of Craft Coffee’s exclusive microlot, Lot 261, sourced from Rivara estate, celebrated for its meticulous fermentation process resulting in a naturally sweet and intricately layered flavour profile.
