Produced by smallholder farmers in the Kintamani highlands of Bali. Grown at 1200 to 1600 meters in elevation in fertile volcanic soil. No pesticides are used on coffee farms in Bali and all fertilizers are 100% organic. The coffee is primarily of the Bourbon and Typica variety with small amounts of Catimor. Only ripe cherries are hand-picking and naturally processed; dried on raised beds allowing the coffee cherry to dry completely prior to being hulled.
The coffee exhibits a pleasant aroma smooth and mellow with hints of fruit, floral, toffee. The taste is very well balanced and sweet. Good body, very mild acidity, and a smooth clean finish. Recommended roast is just to second crack, but don't be afraid to stop short or take it a little longer and experience the subtle differences. The natural process lends to high chaff, so behmor users beware on batches over 1/2 lb. Additionally the high moisture content of the beans are going to take higher temperatures and longer roast times to reach second crack.
