New Coffee! Barokah Sumatra Honey Process

Forget what you think you know about Sumatra coffees and check out our new Barokah Sumatra Honey Process. This coffee is comprised of two unique dwarf coffee varietals- Andung Sari and Sigarar Utang- which are known for exceptional cup quality. Think super clean (which is, of course, unique for a Sumatra) with a buttery body and crisp acidity. This coffee boasts beautiful fruit and spice notes including purple grape, cinnamon applesauce, and nutmeg with hints of raspberry and plum. We highly recommend snagging a bag today.

 

About. Over three hundred smallholder farmers (on average farms are between 0.5 to 2.5 hectares) contribute coffee cherries to the Koerintji Barokah Bersama Cooperative. They live and farm on a plateau that sits at the base of Mount Kerinci, one of the many volcanoes in the Pacific Ring of Fire.

 

Avocados for Cause. For every bag of coffee sold from the Koerintji Barokah Bersama Cooperative, the importers of this coffee- our friends at Sucafina Specialty-donate 1 avocado seedling to member farmers. This past October, Barokah members received over 600 avocado seedlings. When planted, these seedlings will provide shade for coffee trees and an additional source of income for members. The avocado seedlings will also reduce the effects of deforestation, which is a major problem in Kerinci. The trees are also part of a larger project of landscape conservation and buffer zone creation for the nearby Kerinci Seblat National Park. Sucafina plans to continue their avocado project in years to come, improving farmers income opportunities and the surrounding environment.
