Our unroasted coffee selection is intended for roasting purposes.
It’s not just about where coffee grows but how high up it grows. Flavors become lighter and more complex the further from sea level a coffee grows, going from earthy to sweet to nutty citrus and chocolate to spiced wine and fruits.
Precipitation, temperature, and humidity have a lot of say in a coffee’s maturation, overall flavor, and quality. Many coffee-producing countries are either primed for growing success or use alternative methods to improve their ecosystem.
A coffee’s process describes how the seed (aka the coffee bean) is separated from the coffee cherry. Popular methods include washed, dry, and honey, but there are many other processes that put special emphasis on different aspects of these methods.
Harvest and export times are based off when a particular coffee will be at its peak quality. Cherries picked at the start of the harvest season tend to be underdeveloped, and those picked at the end are often overdeveloped, so producers aim for that sweet spot in the middle.
Descending the Inierie volcano toward Bajawa, you’ll find plentiful coffee trees deep in the rich soil, planted among shading bamboo and Juria. Indonesian coffee is known for its low acidity and deep, earthy flavors, and our Organic Flores Bajawa Ngura is no exception, sporting baker’s chocolate, pepper, and syrupy flavors. It’s a smooth medium roast with a well-rounded, syrupy mouthfeel.
