Sulawesi Toaraco Seletan Peaberry

Another batch of Sulawesi Toaraco Seletan Peaberry has just been roasted and ready... in time for your weekend home-coffee-brewing!



This coffee is part of a relatively emerging processing method in Indonesia. Rather than using the wet-processed Giling Basa, this coffee is "dry hulled." This is closer to what you find in Central America or Africa, and it produces a similar cup. This coffee was harvested from about 1500 meters, where a sweeter, more Central American-ish profile can be captured.

In the cup it's apple, starfruit, and green grape with a caramel and honey sweetness. A wonderful surprise for an Indonesian coffee!

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.
