Why Indonesia

The origin advantage

Indonesia is the world's fourth-largest coffee producer, and wet-hulling (Giling Basah) is a processing method almost unique to Sumatra — it's what gives the region its signature heavy body at a scale few other origins can match. Smallholder gardens around Lake Toba have been supplying export coffee for generations, giving buyers a deep, established pool of consistent grade-1 lots to draw from.
