This wet-hulled coffee comes from the Lintong plateaus in Sumatra, Indonesia at 1100-1800 meters altitude. The coffee is a blend of Ateng, Jember, Garundang, and Caturra varieties. The beans were harvested at peak ripeness, fermented for 20-28 hours after depulping, then washed clean of mucilage and hulled while still wet before drying to 17% moisture. The coffee won a bronze medal in the pour-over category at Golden Bean The Americas 2024.
Koine Coffee is a specialty roastery based in East Canton, Ohio, operating on a fully manual drum roaster that demands hands on attention at every stage of the process.
