The Emerald Island Enigma Sumatra Roast ๐ฎ๐ฉ
Dive into the depths of flavor with our The Emerald Island Enigma Sumatra Roast ๐ฎ๐ฉ, a coffee embodying the untamed spirit and rich volcanic soil of Indonesia's lush Aceh province. This is a powerful, profound, and deeply satisfying cup for those who favor tradition and robust character.
Sourced from the renowned Koperasi Baitul Qiradh Baburrayyan (KBQB) in the high-altitude regions of Aceh, Takengon, this coffee is a testament to the unique processing methods that define true Sumatran quality. Grown at elevations between 1,100 and 1,600 meters, the beans develop slowly, resulting in an intense concentration of flavor.
What makes this coffee truly distinctive is the traditional Giling Basha, or Wet-Hulling, processing method. This technique involves removing the parchment from the bean when it still retains significant moisture, imparting the signature characteristics: a deep Earthy complexity, exceptional weight, and an almost savory-sweet finish that is instantly recognizable.
Our freshly roasted Sumatra is brought to a perfect medium-dark level, enhancing the natural sugars and bringing forth a magnificent range of CUPPING NOTES:
- Syrupy Body: The texture is heavy and luxurious, coating the palate with a rich, velvety feel.
- Dark Chocolate: A dominant, satisfying bitterness reminiscent of high-cacao dark chocolate provides the foundation.
- Dried Fruit: Notes of raisin, date, and fig add a subtle, complex sweetness.
- Long Lingering Finish: The flavors persist beautifully, leaving a warm, memorable aftertaste.
As an ethically sourced offering, we are proud to partner with the KBQB cooperative, which supports smallholder farmers through fair pricing and community development, ensuring sustainability for the future of Sumatran coffee.
If you desire a coffee with immense presence, low Medium Acidity, and an exotic, layered flavor profile, the Emerald Island Enigma is your perfect brew. Experience the traditionโtaste the soil.
