Among the coffee producing areas in Asia, Indonesia's Sumatra undoubtedly plays an important role, among which Aceh is an important producing area located in the north of Sumatra.

The coffee comes from the Bener Meriah region of Takengon in central Aceh province, surrounded by about 300 small farmers, using the traditional Indonesian "wet peeling" or "semi-washing" method, or "Giling Basah" in the local language. After the coffee is picked here, the pulp will be removed by the pulp removal machine, and the pectin and sundries will be removed after overnight fermentation. Then dry the shelled beans in the sun field and reduce the moisture to about 12%. Finally, the sheepskin is removed by a sheller and selected by local women by hand.

Generally speaking, such wet stripping treatment will bring unique flavor to coffee, such as earth, herbs, spices and thick feeling. The batch purchased by Cafe Imports has a strong sweet aroma of black sugar, clean flavor and bright sour citrus, which is relatively precious and rare.
