Indonesia Flores Wet-Hull Bajawa



Flores is a small island in the Indonesian archipelago around 200 nautical miles east of Bali. The Bajawa Highlands are one of the most traditional areas of Flores. Bajawa is a small town nestled in the hills and is the centre for the Ngada people of this high, fertile plateau. The coffee is grown between 1150 and 1400 meters, which is a respectable altitude for Indonesian coffee farming.

In the cup it's melon and mango offset by an earthy character, hints of sweet tobacco and a carob and sorghum sweetness in the background. Incredible mouthfeel.
