Coffee cultivation in Indonesia holds a 300 year old story which has been significantly influenced by the Dutch colonization. Today Indonesia is the fourth largest coffee producer in the world. Approximately 85% of East Java Arabica coffees are owned and driven by PTP, standing for the official governmental organization that was founded in 1894 under the Dutch. The remaining 15% of the coffee production is in the hands of farmers that own very small plots of land using traditional processing techniques. Compared to other Indonesian coffees which are mostly semi-washed resp. wet-hulled, these estate coffees from Java including the Blawan and Jampit estates are fully washed. This processing has a significant impact on the flavor due to the fermentation process of approximately 36 hours. After drying the coffee down to a humidity content of approx. 12% the coffees beans are carefully hand-sorted leading to a very consistent and clean cup profile. The Blawan plantation covers a total of 1.250ha while Jampit plantation covers 1.400ha.
Interesting to note: Sumatra, Indonesia, Java, Papua New Guinea have fairly similar taste notes. Often they are ‘earthy.’ Many roasters go fairly dark, toward French [Full City] roasts for these regions. This is why many folks say these are “bold, strong.” Kind of like you.
ENJOY!!! Discover amazing flavor & aroma. We know you will.
