After a hundred years of precipitation, ingenuity and handed down from generation to generation, Kalosi Toraja has been a treasure coffee bean in Indonesia. It has been carefully bred in a 1200-hectare private coffee farm in Tana Toraja, Indonesia. This is the only place with an annual output of no more than 3500 barrels!

In the 17th century, coffee trees were introduced and planted by the Dutch because of Indonesia's unique geology. Subsequently, a large number of coffee beans began to be sold all over the world.

However, 90% of these coffees are grown by sharecroppers on one hectare or less, making it difficult to guarantee their quality.

Among the crowds of Dutch, a trader named Cook Vandek is different.

In order to maintain the same quality, through unremitting efforts, we have found a perfect land in Tana Toraja, southwest of Celebes, one of the oldest islands in the archipelago. The land is 1700 meters high, with layers of clay under the soil surface and rich in iron, which is suitable for growing excellent Arabica coffee beans.

And this island is what is now Sulawesi.

After decades of continuous improvement, the carefully cultivated coffee tree finally blossomed and bear fruit, named after the region, and Kalosi Toraja was born!

But the good times didn't last long, when World War II broke out in 1939, and because of the war, it was forced to stop planting in 1940, and this paradise and Karosi coffee beans gradually disappeared.

Time passed until 1980, when Kapal api Group, Indonesia's largest local coffee company, acquired the disappeared land with the support of the Indonesian government and resumed the cultivation of coffee beans.

Now, with the wish of the founder of the group, Wu Xulu, the flawless top Carosi has come to China to share this fragrance with more coffee fans!

Sulawesi: the island of Sulawesi in northern Indonesia, called "Celebes" under Dutch rule. The best yields are Toraja in the central region and Kalosi in the southwest. Washed beans look good but taste insipid, while sun-dried beans have thicker texture and better taste. Sulawesi's coffee is low in acidity, thick in texture and with a deep herbal flavor, similar to Mandenin in Sumatra as a whole.
