The planting history of G1 coffee beans in Sulawesi Toraja, Indonesia? [Sulawesi] do you recommend hand data for coffee beans in the front street?

Sulawesi Sulawesi, formerly known as Celebes, is an island in Indonesia. Sulawesi is also the 11th largest island in the world. Geographically, Sulawesi is surrounded by the archipelago, Borneo to the west, Mindanao in the Philippines to the north, Moluccas to the east, Florice and Timor to the south, and many of these islands produce coffee.

Indonesia's major islands produce a lot of well-known and excellent coffee, namely, Manning in Sumatra, the state-owned arabica estate in Java, and Toraja in Sulawesi (also known as Kalosi, Kalosi).

Sulawesi has been known as Celebes for centuries; like Java and Sumatra, Sulawesi belongs to volcanic terrain, and there are still ten active volcanoes in the area. In 1750 the Dutch began to grow coffee on the island. It is exported by Ujung Panfang Port (or Makasar Port) in the southwest of the island. Some of the most famous coffees in Sulawesi now come from the Toraja Mountains in the center of the island, where the Toraja live; this time they are high-quality semi-washed beans from the Toraj Mountains. Kalosi is her distribution center, so if you mark Sulawesi Sulawesi Toraja or Sulawesi Carrosi or Selbis-Carosi, you are talking about the high-altitude Sulawesi beans in this area, and only the local buyers and collectors know exactly which small village produces the high-altitude beans.

Toraja's coffee is famous for its name Celebes Kalossi (Selbis-Calossi); Kalosi is the name of the Dutch colonial era; because coffee is grown in more remote areas, it is impossible for coffee farmers to send it to traders themselves! So coffee farmers sell their coffee to middlemen and then resell it to exporters, and Rantepao is the central market for Toraja coffee.

This batch of Karosi is a high-altitude mountain tribe born at 1500 meters. In fact, this tribe already has the conditions of a small cooperative. The reason is that 1) they are all clan relatives. 2) they find their own buyers to cooperate for a long time. 3) Tribal farmers adopt cooperative planting and concentrated first-half washing treatment, and will screen ripe cherry fruits for semi-washing treatment, so the purchase price is higher than that of retail investors in this area. Their purchaser is a local who knows a little English. Because she can speak English, I guess she is a mixed race. I don't know if her ancestors were Portuguese. Several mail letters all mentioned that they would take me to this small producing area to visit this tribe. Unfortunately, they didn't match each other's time and harvest season.

Sulawesi has been known as the Celebes of Salbis for centuries. Like Java and Sumatra, Sulawesi belongs to volcanic topography, and there are still ten active volcanoes in the area.

In 1750 the Dutch began to grow coffee on the island. Exported by Ujung Panfang port.

Now some of Sulawesi's most famous coffee comes from Torajaland in the center of the island, which is home to Toraja; this time it's Torajaland's beans.

Toraja's coffee is famous for its name Celebes Kalossi (Selbis-Calossi); Kalosi is the name of the Dutch colonial era; because coffee is grown in more remote areas, it is impossible for coffee farmers to send it to traders themselves! So coffee farmers sell their coffee to middlemen and then resell it to exporters, and Rantepao is the main market for Toraja coffee.
