Sumatra Toba Batak Peaberry

Just in! Fresh roasted and ready -- Sumatra Toba Batak Peaberry.

This is a peaberry preparation of a specific Lintong area coffee. Lintong coffes are farmed by the Batak peoples that are the indigenous tribe that works the coffee in the area. The family of collectors our buyer sources this lot from works direct with the small growers, bypassing the local markets, which results in a higher quality cup.

In the cup it's plum, dark malt, and cinnamon with a caramelized sugar sweetness and hints of black tea in the finish. A spectacularly complex cup.
