Region: Kintamani Highlands, Bali, Indonesia Tasting Notes: Raspberry, Banana, Chocolate Process: Natural Elevation: 1300-1600 masl Varietal: Arabica B1 Whole Bean Coffee Farm Notes: From the misty highlands of Kintamani in Bangli Regency, Bali, this coffee reflects the harmony between traditional farming and modern quality control. Grown at elevations of 1,300 to 1,600 meters, the coffee benefits from humus-rich and rocky volcanic soils, ideal for cultivating high-quality beans. Historically, the farmers of Kintamani were citrus growers. Over time, they began intercropping coffee among citrus trees - a practice that not only maximized land productivity but also allowed coffee plants to benefit from citrus fertilization. This agroforestry approach has transformed coffee into a vital economic driver for the region. This coffe features a mix of Arabica B-1 (Kopyol), Linie-S, and Ateng varietals, each contributing to the cup’s complexity and balance. The coffee undergoes a semi-washed process, where ripe cherries are selectively harvested. The outer skin of the cherries is removed, leaving some of the mucilage (coffee honey) to stay on the bean. The coffee beans are wet hulled (Giling Basah) while the beans are still moist, contributing to the coffee’s signature earthy and syrupy profile. Beans are dried under direct sunlight on patios, turned regularly to ensure even drying until they reach optimal moisture levels. This coffee is Grade 1 TP, meaning it has been Triple Picked - a rigorous sorting process that removes defects and ensures uniformity. In Indonesia, Grade 1 represents the highest quality tier, suitable for specialty export. Limited to 100 bags. We Roast On Mondays!
