Last Updated: 2025/12/08, Traditional coffee is generally shipped to consumer countries, and adventurous trips sometimes take months, so that the coffee is exposed to very hot and humid cabins, giving it a different flavor, which is what we call old coffee. In recent years, old coffee or old coffee has been kept in the warehouse for some years. This ripening process causes the acidity of coffee beans to decrease and the viscosity to increase.

Traditional coffee is generally shipped to consumer countries, and adventurous trips sometimes take months, so that the coffee is exposed to very hot and humid cabins, giving it a different flavor, which is what we call old coffee.

In recent years, aged coffee or old coffee has been kept in the warehouse for some years, and this ripening process reduces the acidity of coffee beans and increases their viscosity. Aged coffee is preserved longer than seasonal coffee beans or mature coffee beans (stored in the warehouse for two or three years). Recently, some Indonesian coffee, such as Indonesian monsoon coffee, has been deliberately exposed to moist and salty air to speed up aging.
