Sulawesi (Natural) 8oz bag *parlor series*
You’ll notice this is a fruity cup with lots of structural depth to it. I had to keep going back to this coffee to sort out what was going on in the cup. There is an interesting weight to this coffee that comes out in the form of rum, tootsie roll and tamari. Accompanied by lots of fruit notes like blueberry pie, mango, raspberry, hard candy and tart cranberry. The contrast of the depth this coffee is capable of, along with the fruit notes make for an intriguing experience.
An ideal coffee for those that want to explore what a natural coffee has to offer but are a little bit nervous to try something crazy. In further brews, the team got notes like roasted beet, chocolate mousse and whiskey-soaked cherry. We love the depth and texture of this natural Sulawesi.
It’s difficult to source from Sulawesi, mostly because logistics is such a difficult aspect to navigate. Transits that are tumultuous for coffee can lower the cup quality due to storage practices or lack of care. Because of the streamlined process from estate to export, this provides worry-free delivery and allows for even more focus on cup quality. You can tell there is an extreme amount of care taken to make sure the cup quality is up to par. Although Indonesia is one of the oldest coffee growing regions, Sulawesi is considered a niche coffee growing region sourced by specialty coffee roasters
