This strong Indonesian coffee comes from Sumatra, the second largest of the Indonesian islands, & is considered among the finest examples from the region. Indonesia itself is the fourth largest coffee producer in the world, & the longitude & latitude of the country make for particularly well suited micro-climates in producing a diverse, flavoursome variety of beans. In fact, depending on the region, Indonesian coffees are known to be imbued with flavours of cocoa, smoke, cedar wood, earth & tobacco, & there are varieties of both arabica & robusta beans produced in great quantities. Our Blue Sumatra is smooth & aromatic, with a well balanced spiciness that is typical of Sumatran coffees, while a full body & a little acidity provides a delightful hint of intensity, making this a pleasure to drink from a cafetiere, filter, or as an espresso.
