Indonesian Specialty Coffee
We work directly with smallholder coffee farmers on the Indonesian islands to bring you reliable, traceable, quality Arabica specialty coffee.
We produce our own coffee in partnership with farmers on Central Java. We also are a trusted sourcing agent for specialty coffee from all over Indonesia – Sumatra, Bali, Toraja, and more.
These coffee processors have shared knowledge to bring you , amazing, traceable, sustainable, quality (and any other industry buzzword I can think of) coffee. Thank you Lisa and Leo for opening up your farm and home. Best practices coming to Central Java, Toraja, and Flores soon.

The difference in accept vs reject in a mechanical color sorter. We had a chance to see a Satake color sorter at work and the time and accuracy to make quality green coffee is amazing. Now making plans...

See that hole? That means our old enemy, the coffee Berry borer beetle has found a home. There could be dozens of animals living in this coffee cherry right now just ready to grow and spread and reduce productivity in this plantation. We work hard to control their population with natural pesticides and traps so we maximize the harvest of our farmer partners.

Another course down in the best sensory education experience in the archipelago. Two of our own, @ardyrama21 and Wiwit Arief were the top students in the latest @puslitkoka_id Uji Cita Rasa course. Proud of these guys.
Professionals and brothers in coffee chilling at the "beach". We received an impromptu visit from @toby.moshe, producer of some fine Toraja, and soon to be Flores, coffee. Hope to have it on our offer lists soon.

A single perfect, ripe, red cherry. The only thing is that it's way out of season. This Banjarnegara Atas (BATARAS) plantation is mainly Sigararutang varietal. One of the characteristics of this Catimor varietal is that it fruits all year round.

Throwback to our team Thanksgiving. Still tankful for a great team of coffee-hunting, processing, cupping, roasting, tasting, brewing, accounting gang such as this.

Raised beds like these make it easy for smallholder farmers that we work with to control more of the process of the the coffee they make and grow. When an individual household has two or three of these they can pick, float, and dry cherries in a short time. This lessens the uncontrolled fermentation time that that happens in the mill transport stage. It also allows the smallholder farmer to collect more margin than would normally be available to them in the supply chain. They get to sell dried pods instead of raw cherries.

We love evaluating coffees. Sometimes we find a diamond in the rough like a recent sample from the Dieng Highlands of Central Java. Other times we get to add to our lexicon of negative descriptive terminology. No matter, we cup it all.

Cupping new coffees for quality. We like this part of the job best.

Subroto, the leader of the Baratas cooperative in Central Java, checks the sugar content of his 2020 coffee harvest. We still have stock in our US warehouse.
There remain 15 sacks left of Subroto's washed. This coffee is a Sigarar Utang variety from an elevation of 1200-1500 Masl. Its flavor is full of a light sweetness, reminiscent of brown sugar, sweet breads, and dark chocolate.
Get some of this mater's craft before it's gone. DM to learn more.
