Story
From the fabled growing region of Tana Toraja comes this sturdy and unique coffee. Unlike its other more famous Indonesian counterparts, Sulawesi is crisp and refreshing. No wonder it was judged 2nd place among Indonesian coffees in 2011 by coffeereview.com. This coffee is a favorite of The Roasterie’s bean hunter Paul Massard. He compares it to a muted version of the spicy, earthy profile of a classic Sumatran coffee, but with a little bit brighter flavor. Toraja produces a relatively low annual yield of coffee beans, which, along with its exquisite flavor, makes this coffee especially prized all over the world. It’s especially a favorite in Japan.
