Coffee Description
If you’ve pigeonholed Sumatran coffees as being very earthy with very low, flat acidities, think again! Because of the extra care taken in the processing of this coffee, it has much cleaner, sweeter profile with a mid range acidity like cherry cola as it cools.

About Various smallholder farmers, Pantan Musara villages of Indonesia
This coffee comes from a small mill in Sumatra's (coffee) famous Aceh region. The mill serves several small coffee producers within the Pantan Musara villages. Several years ago, these producers were dislocated from their homes and land because of a natural disaster, and they have rebuilt their lives and farms with a new focus on coffee. Unlike the vast majority of other Sumatran coffee receiving and processing centers, this mill is producing washed coffee, as well as naturally processed coffees.
