We are currently in production and shipping Tuesdays and Wednesdays. They describe qualities we identify in the coffee. None of our coffees have added flavors or ingredients.)Īll of our coffee is roasted-to-order. You can subscribe to this coffee and receive automatic shipments every 1-4 weeks! The result is an earthy, smoky coffee with a hint of spice and cocoa. We compliment these qualities with a roast that is a touch darker than medium, bringing the complexity of this surprising coffee into full focus. The unique process of converting Sumatran coffee cherries from a fruit to a dry green bean produces a low acid coffee with flavors that can vary cup to cup and reflect its lush tropical Indonesian island origins. The beans have to be dried so many times due to the moisture in the atmosphere caused by the tropical climate.This organic, fair trade Sumatran coffee is grown at an elevation of 2,500 - 5,000 feet in the northern region of Aceh on this Indonesian island and bought from the Rahmat Kinara co-op of smallholder farmers. It’s not a simple process and workers face many challenges when harvesting coffee beans in Indonesia, that is aside from the humidity and manual labor. Before being exported, the coffee beans are dried out again at the port.The beans are then left to partially dry before being moved to the factory/warehouse to completely dry.The remaining fruit on the coffee beans is then washed off the next morning.The beans are stored in coffee sacks to ferment for one night.This will be done with a machine or manually. Workers then remove the skins from each individual cherry.The coffee is harvested from the plants and separated so the cherries remain.
When going through the wet hulling process, these are the stages that are followed: This involves removing the skin of the coffee cherry, fermenting the beans, and washing off the remaining fruit before leaving it to partially dry.Įach method of coffee harvesting will alter the taste of the bean, but the taste would also be dependent on the roasting method and technique used. Sumatra coffee is harvested using the wet hulling technique.
