"TThis coffee comes to us from Java, a country so important to the history of coffee production that coffee as a beverage has been colloquially referred to as “java” since the late 1800s. This particular lot comes to us from the Riunggunung Estate in the Pangalengen region of West Java. Riunggunung is a very small farm, only occupying around 10 hectares of land. Weather in the region can present challenges due to the farm’s location. Temperatures can dip toward the freezing point and the potential frost could devestate that season’s crop, however the cool temps and elevation lead to a slower maturation of the plants and therefore a richer, more nuanced flavor in the final product.
 
Our experience with this coffee has been universally positive. The cup is intensely juicy and leads with notable impressions of tart red fruit backed up by pleasant sweetness. Distinct florality is present through the latter half of the sip and the cup finishes smoothly without a hint of bitterness. It is also very flexible in terms of brewing method, and for those of you who enjoy a naturally processed coffee on espresso, this coffee is sure to please!"
