Regional Coffee
- SumatraSumatra is the second largest island of the Republic of Indonesia. Sumatra Mandheling coffee although relatively rare is grown on the lofty volcanic slopes of Mount Leuser near the port of Padang in the Batak region of west-central Sumatra, at altitudes of 2, 500 to 5, 000 feet. Coffee trees were originally brought to Indonesia in the early 19th century by the Dutch who sought to break the worldwide Arabic monopoly on the cultivation of coffee. Within a few years, Indonesian coffee dominated the world's coffee market. Yet by the end of the century disease completely destroyed the crop. Coffee trees were successfully replanted and quickly gained a large share of the world market until the plantations were ravaged again during World War II. The natural drying method used in its production results in a very full body with a concentrated flavor, garnished with herbal nuances and a spicy finish. The coffee has a low acidity and a richness that lingers on the back corners on your tongue. Notes of chocolate are evident in the finish. Cupping notes: Strong cedar notes, consistent, balanced, sweet tobacco, winey, spicy, chocolate$14.30

- KenyaKenya is well known for its highly organized network of coffee cooperatives. This system produces remarkable consistency in growing methods, milling, and auctioning across a web of about 150, 000 growers, the majority of which are small-scale farmers. The topography of high-altitude plateaus in major Kenyan coffee regions combined with acidic soil provides excellent growing conditions for Arabica. All Kenyan coffee is graded primarily by screen size (a measure of the size of the bean, larger being higher grade) immediately after milling; it then proceeds to the weekly auction at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange. The AA Grade is the top grade based on screening. After grading, there are two general quality distinctions for AA: Top Quality or Plus - Only a minimal amount of slight defects allowed as long as no effect on the cup. Typically grown at 4500-6000 ft above sea level, of SL-34 variety. Very high-quality coffees often derive from small co-ops and may be auctioned as separate lots. Cupping notes: Citrus, berry, notes of spice or tobacco$14.30
