Description
Distinctive lychee flavour leads this small lot from Bener Meriah, Sumatra, accompanied by honey-like sweetness and delicate rose aromatics. Citrus zest brings brightness, while subtle tea and cocoa notes add depth to its rounded, medium bodied cup. Co-fermented with lychee and infused with lychee extract during processing, this coffee offers an expressive fruit and floral experience for filter brewing.
SOURCING STORY
In the highlands of Aceh, northern Sumatra, Central Sumatera Coffee grows this lot on its 100-hectare Bener Meriah estate. Founded in 2015 by Enzo Sauqi Hutabarat, the company brings estate cultivation and experimental processing together, managing coffee varieties in separate farm sections. A dedicated harvesting and processing team oversees the coffee from cherry selection through drying and sorting. For this small lot, lychee co-fermentation and infusion build on Sumatra’s established wet-hulling tradition, creating a distinctive expression of the estate’s approach to coffee.
