Description
Sumatran coffee is what initially made us home-roasting believers. We have never had an excellent commercial cup of Sumatra. But when fresh & roasted correctly, wow, it is one tasty cup!
Curated from coffee farms in Northern Sumatra, these beans have been specially selected to create a quality cup after decaffeination. This group of coffee farms is chosen for their engagement in best-practice coffee planting techniques, and the plants are grown in volcanic loam soil at altitudes ranging from 4200-5600 feet.
During the Swiss Water process, the green coffee is hydrated to expand the beans for caffeine extraction. The hydrated green coffee is then introduced to Green Coffee Extract (GCE), a unique solution of concentrated coffee solubles that allows the caffeine to leave the green coffee via osmosis while minimizing the loss of desired flavor compounds. Once the caffeine has been removed the green coffee is re-dried and re-bagged for transport, and the GCE is filtered of its caffeine through proprietary carbon filters and recycled to be used again
Indonesian Sumatrans brew a bold, strong, and robust cup of coffee with a sweet post-roast aroma with hints of warming spice.
Tasting Notes:
Medium to full-bodied and sweet, this is one robust cup of coffee. It has a lovely aroma of cinnamon and dark fruits with notes of incense—hints of dry herb and chocolaty spice with just a smidgen of traditional Sumatra peat moss/smokiness.
Roasting Notes:
If you enjoy a medium-bodied, strong, and robust cup, try a medium roast of this decaf. If you want more body to your cup, take the bean all the way to a dark roast. Both roasts offer warming notes of cinnamon with a punch of dark fruitiness. Your nose will be enlightened with rich, spiced herbal aromatics and a slight tinge of the traditional Sumatra peat moss/smokiness.
