Producing areas:
The Tonaga (Tana Toraja) mountain area of southwest Sulawi (South Sulawesi), 1700 meters above sea level, is an alpine volcanic terrain with sufficient sunlight, a large temperature difference between day and night, and a normal temperature of 24 ℃ ~ 25 ℃. High-quality Arabica beans are grown because of the volcanic weakly acidic soil in the fertile tropical highlands.
The appearance of Toraja coffee beans is very similar to that of Mantenin coffee in Sumatra (Sumatra). It is treated by Indonesian traditional natural process / semi-washing method. The best Toraja coffee beans come from Kalosi, with an annual output of only 3000 barrels, each with a code, and each barrel of coffee beans carved by hand. It is the only handicraft in the world and is very expensive.
This coffee is full-bodied and rich, with a low sour taste with fresh earthy flavor and a long throat rhyme, challenging the taste buds of coffee glutton. Therefore, coffee is famous all over the world and has become a gift "tribute" for the Indonesian government to entertain the European Union.

Rare Celebes Tongkonan national treasure beans
Celebes Tongkonan national treasure beans are the top coffee beans produced by Toraja on the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. The reason why they are rare is that the annual output is less than 1000 barrels (1.5kg per barrel of raw beans). Most of the output is monopolized by European traders. It is used by the Indonesian royal family and EU officials as exclusive top beans for gifts. There is little circulation on the market, and a batch of them flowed into Taiwan in 2009.
