Island Essence - Sumatra Coffee
Earthy, Bold, and Mysterious
Bold & Smooth Sumatra Coffee from the Indonesian Highlands
In the heart of Indonesia, the origin of world-renowned Sumatra, lies the island of Sumatra — where earth’s rhythm meets the ocean’s whispers. This lush land of volcanoes, ancient forests, and rich tradition is the birthplace of Island Essence.
High in the highlands, farmers hand-pick cherries grown in volcanic soil beneath a tropical canopy. These beans soak up the island's mystique — the spice of its forests, the warmth of its people, and the depth of its seasons. Traditional wet-hulling gives this Sumatra its signature earthy flavor and full-bodied texture.
After slow roasting, Island Essence reveals a bold but balanced cup — smooth, low in acidity, and velvety in finish. It’s perfect for reflective mornings, quiet rituals, or simply enjoying a deeper brew, a true experience.
