Sumatran coffee is one of the most famous coffee in the world. It's truly unique because of its special wet-hulled processing method. The process uses water to remove the cherry's red pulp and mucilage, as well as the parchment layer. By removing the parchment layer the bean dries faster, which is beneficial in Indonesia's wet climate. In Grade 1 coffees the process continues with meticulous color sorting to eliminate defective green coffee beans. The wet-hulled process gives Sumatra its signature intense earthy flavors of cedar and tobacco, as well as rich, sweet chocolate. With Sumatra Karo Highlands roasters can dive into the deep, rustic and sweet character of Indonesian coffee.
