From the world’s largest archipelago country comes our Sumatran coffee. The fertile soil combined with the long sunny days and year-round short heavy rainfalls allow farmers to harvest their coffee plants 2-3 times in one year. Despite the difficult living conditions, the farmers work in one of the country’s richest natural environments. Good pruning and compost fertilization techniques keep the trees productive for 10 months of the year and for up to 45 years – unheard of elsewhere in the coffee universe! Grown between 3,500 and 4,500 feet above sea level, this coffee is harvested best between September and June. Learn more...
