     This lot is sourced from the Jagong Mill and surrounding family-owned farms located in the Takengon and Atu Lintang coffee region of Aceh province on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. Irham Junus owns and operates the Jagong Mill with his son, Andi and daughter, Ina. The Junus family has focused on meticulous ripe cherry selection resulting in something truly unique in Sumatra. The Junus family also has full control of the processing and milling right up to the final export stage, avoiding the long and convoluted supply lines that can compromise Sumatran quality.  It’s wet-hulled the traditional Sumatran way — the parchment is hulled while the bean is still wet — which is what gives Sumatra its famously deep, heavy body.
     Their focus on ripe cherry selection and precision in processing has created one of the best tasting examples of a wet hulled coffee that we have come across in quite some time.  It has a deep rustic sweetness in the cup, a full body and hints of sweet black cherry.  It is a truly complex and unique cup.

In order to balance getting your coffee out to you as quickly as possible with freshness of roast we ship all coffee as ordered within one week of the roast date.

In our experience most coffees taste best after at least a few days' rest, and high-quality coffees stay at peak flavor up to six weeks post roast.
