This is the Josuma Premium Washed Robusta Parchment-AB for the 2026-2027 season.
Premium Washed Robusta Parchment-AB is similar in quality to Kaapi Royale, but is a smaller bean. This will be our main Washed Robusta offering for the 2026-2027 season.
We recommend roasting this new crop slightly darker than full city and letting them rest 5-7 days.
The Raw Facts
The Raw Facts
This coffee is supplied by Josuma, so you know it is high quality. They typically source their Parchment-AB from the same farms that supply Kaapi Royale. Both beans are grown, harvested, and processed together. Separation first occurs shortly before export at the dry mill when size sorting splits the washed Robusta bulk lot into separate Kaapi Royale and Parchment-AB lots.
Usually Parchment AB Grade consists of 16+ screen beans.

Indian washed Robusta has none of the rubbery aftertaste one normally associates with lower-grade Robusta. As a result, Indian washed Robusta plays an integral role in most Italian- and European-style espresso blends.
Parchment AB Grade consists of 16+ screen beans. The new crop exhibit a grassy green taste that is easily overcome by roasting slightly darker than full city. When aged, these beans soften and mellow remarkably well.
You do NOT want to make a whole cup of coffee with only Robusta beans. But do try up to 10% in an espresso blend and see the difference.
