We owe our gratitude to Mother Nature for Indonesia’s extraordinary terroir: rich volcanic soil, high elevations, abundant rainfall, and a climate perfectly suited for exceptional coffee. These natural blessings shape a landscape where coffee plants thrive, developing bold flavors, deep complexity, and a character found nowhere else. The interplay of coffee’s genetic potential, environment, and farming practice determines the cherry quality, laying the foundation for a truly remarkable cup.
Situated in the heart of Aceh Province, Bener Meriah boasts mountainous landscapes, fertile volcanic soil, and a cool climate which are ideal conditions for cultivating Indonesia’s finest Arabica coffee. The region sits at elevations between 1,200 to 1,800 meters above sea level, where the slower cherry maturation enhances sugar development and complexity in the cup.

Featuring rugged highlands, mineral-rich volcanic soil, and a humid tropical climate, Mandheling offers a naturally favorable environment for producing complex and full-bodied Arabica coffee. Grown at altitudes ranging from 1,000 to 1,250 meters, the beans develop slowly under shade-grown conditions, gaining depth and nuance over time.
Mandheling coffee is closely associated with its distinctive wet-hulled (giling basah) processing, which imparts its signature earthy notes, syrupy body, and low acidity. The process also allows for faster drying in Sumatera’s humid environment, a key adaptation to local conditions. Known for its chocolaty undertones, herbal complexity, and velvety texture, Mandheling coffee continues to captivate roasters and drinkers around the world.

Perched in the highlands of West Sumatera, Solok thrives with fertile soil, misty cool air, and a mosaic of microclimates created by its surrounding lakes and valleys. This unique climate dynamic allows for the cultivation of high-quality Arabica coffee at altitudes reaching up to 1,450 meters, where slower cherry development enhances acidity and flavor clarity.
While relatively new to the specialty coffee spotlight compared to its northern neighbors, Solok has built a reputation for its bright, clean cup profile and delicate complexity. The coffees often express citrusy notes, floral aromatics, and refined sweetness, a few qualities that appeal to modern specialty coffee palates.

Nestled in Bali’s picturesque highlands, the Mt. Sanghyang region flourishes with deep volcanic soil, cool mists, and consistent rainfall, providing ideal growing conditions for Arabica coffee. Farms here are often integrated into lush agroforestry, creating natural biodiversity and ecological balance. Elevations range from 1,100 to 1,500 meters, allowing cherries to mature slowly and develop more complex flavors.
Guided by Tri Hita Karana, the Balinese philosophy of harmony among people, nature, and the divine, coffee from Mt. Sanghyang reflects this harmony in every cup: balanced sweetness, delicate florals, and clean acidity. It is where craftsmanship, tradition, and spirituality converge, offering a unique coffee experience that connects you to the spirit of the tropical paradise of Bali.
