Sumatra Kerinci Natural (Kawa Specialty)

Sumatra Kerinci Natural (Specialty Coffee) 250 g

Coffee cultivation in Indonesia dates back to the 17th century, when the Dutch colonizers saw an opportunity to increase their profits from the coffee trade. Today, this region is among the world's largest coffee producers. Most coffee is grown on small farms covering no more than 2 hectares.

This exceptional coffee comes from central Sumatra, near Mount Kerinci, which is also the country's highest volcano. The mountain reaches 3,800 meters above sea level and is part of Seblat National Park. This region is home to lush tropical rainforests and is the last stronghold of the Sumatran tiger. The natural beauty of this area is unimaginable, and the views are breathtaking. The soil is fertile, with all the beneficial qualities of volcanic soil, making it ideal for growing coffee.

Our coffee is grown by farmers from the Camintoran Cooperative. The group consists of 162 producers.

This particular micro-lot of S-Lini and Caturra varieties was produced by farmers from the villages of Jernih Jaya, Kersik Tuo, Gunung Tujuh, and Lindung Jaya.

The coffee is naturally processed and hand-sorted. After drying, it developed excellent sensory qualities, with abundant sweetness, fruity notes, and hints of alcohol reminiscent of rum or red wine.

Taste and aroma: Ripe bananas, herbs, red wine.
