Funky & Fruity

All that we have come to expect from Sumatran coffees comes through here in spades. A thick, big-bodied cup with a wine-like acidity and a combination of dried fruit, chocolate, and earthy notes.

    Roaster’s Notes
    Classic Sumatra character, this Rustic Charmer has a potent musty aroma; dense body, rustic cherry and herbal flavor with a strong finish. Grown and processed in the Lintong region near Lake Toba, "Batak" refers to the ethnic group and indigenous culture in the northern part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra.
