Blind Assessment: Spice-toned, complex, deep. Baking spices, dates, blood orange, cedar, brown sugar in aroma and cup. Sweet structure with bright, lively acidity; crisp, creamy mouthfeel. Long, resonant, lingering, integrated finish.

Notes: Produced by members of Koerintji Barokah Bersama Cooperative from the Andung Sari and Sigarar Utang varieties of Arabica, and processed by the honey method, in which some of the fruit flesh is left on the coffee seed during the drying process. JBC Coffee Roasters’ vision is simple: “let the coffee lead the way” through sourcing and roasting the best and most unique coffees available and rewarding the farmers who grow those coffees with substantial premiums.

The Bottom Line: A nuanced, multi-layered, richly aromatic Sumatra cup characterized by notes of baking spices and citrus zest — and a serious bargain as well.
