MEDIUM ROAST - 12 OUNCE WHOLE BEAN
Notes of White Grape, Vanilla, and Floral Blossom
Competition Grade Coffee
Delicate hints of white grape complement the velvety smooth mouth feel and bright floral notes of this unique Indonesian coffee. The caramelization of sugars during key points of this roast yield a sweet vanilla like taste with a intoxicating floral finish.
KSU Arinagata has worked hard to improve the livelihoods of Indonesian farmers through the cooperative model. Arinagata is organic and Fairtrade certified and provides technical assistance and training for their farmer members. Additionally, Arinagata also operates a sister women’s cooperative called Ari Aras Awali.
The semi-washed processing of this coffee involves a fermentation period of 8 hours following de-pulping. After this, the coffee is dried until it reaches a moisture content of 40% before being collected by Arinagata collectors. At the cooperative’s warehouse, the coffee is hulled and further dried until it reaches 12.5% moisture content.
One reason we ordered is because the website said the coffee ships same day as ordered. Our order took almost a month. Ordered on December 18 and received Jan 13. I emailed customer service twice checking on the order and even requesting to cancel it. I emailed the email listed on their website. No one ever responded to me. I felt really disappointed in their customer service.
Wow! I served Sugar Phoenix at our weekly extended family Sunday breakfast, and it was a big hit. Wonderful coffee
Besides great taste, how my food was sourced is extremely important to me. Regeneratively Farmed, Fair Trade, and Organic tells me that you care about the quality of the product, my health, and the health of the soil where it was grown!
I ordered because of the regenerative practices and will reorder for the taste.
