ALMOST DARK ROAST

10oz. whole bean coffee

Coming from the Bener Meriah Regency, Aceh District, on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. This is a lovely example of traditional Sumatra coffee. Unique stuff comparatively to African or American coffees. Wet-hulling is their traditional processing method and differs from anywhere else in the world. Leaves the coffee thick and dark toned, a semi-sweet richness. Rustic earthy chocolate tones with spice notes pretty much nail the terroir, the spice notes ranging from peaty, to herbal to incense like depending on the batch. This region of Indonesia is also referred to as the Gayo land because the coffee farmers are from the Gayonese ethnic group. On average, producers cultivate coffee on 2.5 acres of land using their own micro-mills to depulp, ferment, wash and partially dry the coffee in the parchment.

Flavor
Heavy chocolaty cup profile! Very classic tasting Sumatra with bold spice notes and subtle hint of sweet florals.
