Grinding and roasting treatment of Kahayang Gan Manor in Indonesia, one of the best coffee producers in the world

Coffee with low acidity is described as: "good Java coffee has this property, it shows a relatively thick, slightly lighter and less acidic than some other Indonesian coffee." This coffee shows a rustic style and a long aftertaste on the whole, with a slight flicker of vegetation in the aftertaste. Compared with other Indonesian coffees, the finish is not that long, but it often contains a slightly spicy and smoky blend. Java coffee gives people an impression of sweetness as a whole, very soft and rich. " I don't know what Java coffee was like in its heyday, but when I read it, Indonesia has always been one of the best coffee producers in the world. Java coffee used to be synonymous with top coffee. Sumatra and Sulawesi are also rich in top coffee. Coffee arrived in Indonesia early and was brought in by the Dutch in the 17th century, when Ceylon, now Sri Lanka, began to grow coffee because of the Dutch. At that time, Arabica coffee was grown in Indonesia and Sri Lanka.

The coffee was discovered because stingy Dutch planters banned local workers from drinking coffee. In order to get the magical fruit they had worked so hard to grow, they had to find another way to find it in the excrement of civets. After cleaning and grinding, it was made into world-class coffee, which was then found by the Dutch and became more expensive. Bali, as Indonesia's main tourist destination, is often famous for its golden coffee in tourist brochures. In fact, this is the special item of Golden Mandheling coffee in Sumatra, Indonesia, also known as Golden Manning. In Sumatra, which probably escaped the disease in the past, Mantenin is one of the top coffees in the world. It is slippery and mellow, with a heavier taste and a longer aftertaste than Java coffee. It may not be as delicate as Java, but more ferocious. The trademark of the golden butterfly can be identified at the time of purchase.

There are also some plantations in Bali that have been turned into resorts, such as the Munduk Moding plantation, which has been turned into a luxury resort with spa. The resort is close to the Central Lake District of Bali and the Munduk Mountain Station, and the nearby hills are covered with forests, coffee trees and rice, with charming surroundings and rooms with local characteristics. In fact, Bali and other old plantations preserved in the sea today are now clustered in eastern Java, including Djampit, Blawan, Pancoer, and Kayumas4, all near the Ijen volcano on the Ijen plateau, where they have grown the same coffee from the 18th century to the present day. But Java is no longer that Java, and when it comes to Indonesian coffee, people talk more about Sumatran mantenin coffee, or the more magical coffee Kopi Luwak, the legendary civet coffee. Luwak coffee is known as the most expensive coffee in the world, mainly produced in Indonesia's Sumatra, Java and other islands, but it is so rare that civets swallow the coffee fruit and unexpectedly eliminate most of the bitterness after "sorrow". Leave more delicious coffee stored for several years to get a better taste, storage also brings higher prices, shoddy quality, all kinds of smuggling are common. By the 1880s, Java coffee reached its peak, but the delicate Arabica coffee plant could not escape the plague. a rust hit many areas of Java, including Java, and large tracts of coffee trees died. at that time, only 1/10 Arabica coffee survived in Indonesia, mostly in Sumatra. Then the Dutch again brought Africa's stronger Robusta coffee, which is more resistant to diseases and insect pests, but tasted less than Arabica coffee, and the halo finally left Java. At that time, Europeans fought for Indonesian coffee, especially Java coffee, which tasted less bitter.
