Sumatran Coffee (Aceh Province and Sipangan Bolon) This coffee is sourced from the most amazing locations, at the very end of Lake Tawar in Aceh province and also near the town of Parapat near Lake Toba.

This particular coffee has been through the sorting process 3 times (hence triple picked), making it as clean a coffee as you will find from Sumatra. All our Sumatran coffees are directly sourced through a small family export company and our good friend Dody Sayhrum from CV Yudi Putra. YP have an extensive network of small micromills in the Sumatra lake Toba region of Sumatra and Aceh. Dody and his family really are leading the charge for specialty coffee production in Sumatra and we re proud to be working with them.
