Sumatra Coffee
Low-Key Acidity
Concentrated Flavor
This Sumatra coffee is as rich in flavor as it is rich in coffee history. Amazingly enough, this coffee was once thought to be lost to the world due a series of calamities starting with the downfall of the Dutch East Indies Trading Company, the Leaf Rust epidemic in the 1880's, and also through political confrontations including WWII. It took over 100 years for the rare cultivar to be rediscovered, hidden amongst the lush jungle of Sumatra. Since then, these ancient Arabica trees have been replanted in the Mandailing Province of West Sumatra, which is now world famous for its production of gourmet coffee.
