About this Coffee:
Sumatran coffees capture the wild jungle essence of this tropical Indonesian
island. We cup Sumatran after Sumatran to find that earthy, deep, complex, full-bodied
coffee that exhibits low-acidity smoothness and a touch of forest floor funk.
A great Sumatran is creamy, sweet, with a touch of butterscotch, spice, and
mustiness. (Yes, mustiness, not jungle rot. This is where cupping Sumatran after
Sumatran pays off Big!)
