JAVA, Blawan Estate

Full Body, Low Acidity. Orange blossom, Honeydew, maple syrup

The Blawan Estate is one of the oldest and largest estates in Java. Founded by the Dutch in the 17th century when Java was first colonized, the estate was later nationalized by the
government after the country achieved independence. Volcanic soil in Eastern Java from the Ijen Plateau provides the perfect conditions for this super balanced sweet coffee. The estate grows mostly Typica, and washes and sun-dries all its coffee, with harvest occurring from May-September.

SUMATRA Mandheling

Full body, low acidity. Wildflower honey, wood smoke, clove bud

A deep, brooding yet phenomenally clean cup that represents this origin well.

The coffees of Indonesia are unique for their processing method known as wet-hulling. This process contributes to forest, earthy and wood notes often found in these intriguing coffees. Coffee was introduced to Sumatra by the Dutch circa 1700 and has been cultivated ever since. The term “mandheling” is a Dutch word for the ethnic group that was once primarily involved with the cultivation, processing and trading of the nation’s coffee. Most production takes place around the Lake Toba and Tawar regions. These coffees are not typically sorted or sold by growing region or estate. Frequently, they are labeled and sold by grade due to the fact that smallholders–farmers who have just a few hectares under cultivation–grow most of Sumatra’s coffee. Once picked, the cherries are partially processed by the farmer–a system unique to Sumatra–then sold to traders who finish the milling and drying process.

ETHIOPIA, Limu, Tencho Wolenso

Tea like body, medium-high acidity. Bergamot, blackberry, Meyer lemon.

Coming from the Jimma Zone of Ethiopia in the western part of the country, this coffee is the product of hard work between the Wolenso Coop and the international nonprofit
Tenchoserve. Tenchoserve has projects the world over, working primarily with farmers
of all different crops to improve quality control and thus the price they get for their product. In contrast to Ethiopia’s more developed coffee growing regions, like Harrar and Sidama/Yirgacheffe, Jimma is currently thought of a bit like the Wild West. Home to the Kaffa forests–which are thought to possess some of the original genetic stock of the coffee plant–this up-and-coming area boasts both an ideal climate and the elevations needed for growing Arabica coffee species.

DECAF Blend, Swiss Water Process

Full Body, mild acidity. Sweet butter, truffles, baked apples

A wonderfully well-rounded decaf! This Brazil-based blend pulls a rich and syrupy shot
of espresso that can be hard to come by in decaffeinated coffees.

Swiss water process uses a patented method that is chemical-free to decaffeinate green coffee. Green coffee is soaked in hot water, releasing caffeine. When all of the caffeine and coffee solids are released into the water, the beans are removed and the water is passed through a carbon filter, which allows the coffee solids to pass through, but catches the caffeine.
