Major coffee growing regions in Indonesia include Sumatra, Sulawesi, Java, Flores Islands and Bali. The Dutch brought coffee to Indonesia from Yirgacheffe in the 17th century. They tested all of the islands and the first foothold was East Java…from there it spread like wildfire. Sumatra is the sixth largest island in the world and yet probably one of the least visited.

Cupping Notes:
Rich, syrupy body with a low acidity; hints of dark chocolate and a sweet pipe tobacco finish.
