Sulawesi Toaraco Seletan Peaberry
A delicious Single Origin Peaberry coffee from Sulawesi!
This coffee is part of a relatively emerging processing method in Indonesia. Rather than using the wet-processed Giling Basah, 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 caramel and honey sweetness. A wonderful surprise from an Indonesian coffee!
