Have you ever tried a coffee from Sulawesi? Or even know where Sulawesi is? We have just a short supply left of this sweet and smooth but slightly rustic Indonesia coffee left for our current Limited Batch offering.

Sulawesi is an Indonesian country between Sumatra (to the west) and Papua New Guinea (to the East).

Sulawesi has higher elevation coffee than other Indonesia origins. The coffee is traditionally wet hulled (like a Sumatra) but it is dried to a lower moisture level so it develops less of the rustic earthy notes than a Sumatra and has an overall cleaner and brighter cup.

This coffee is still on the rustic side with a full body but with more herbal notes and unrefined sugar sweetness.

Colombia is the origin of our latest Limited Batch series and it is smooth like butter. Then that butter was drizzled over brown sugar candied walnuts and dried apples. And then someone snuck in a pinch of cayenne pepper. It’s super tasty.

Guatemala La Viuda comes from the farm of Evelia Gomez. She was given the nickname “La Viuda” (the Widow) by her fellow villagers after the untimely passing of her husband. She now runs the farm on her own, keeping it in pristine condition. This wonderful lot tastes reminiscent of a hot smore just off the campfire with notes of dark chocolate layered with sweet marshmallow and graham.
