The Richness of Indonesian Coffees
With our Ali Ziya Zade Coffee brand, we offer you the richness of coffee beans grown on Indonesia's tropical and volcanic islands. We carefully select high-quality coffee beans from high-quality coffee farmers on the Indonesian islands of Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Bali, Papua, and Sulawesi. We process them in our own Sumatra facility, screen them, and then we offer them to coffee lovers.
Indonesia, a major player in global coffee production, ranks third in the world in production, and 3 to 5 of its coffee production is Robusta. Robusta and Arabica coffee trees possess the magnificent aromatic flavors derived from the volcanic soils and tropical climate of Indonesia's islands. Each micro-coffee farmer carefully cultivates their coffees, resulting in exquisite flavors through wet processing. Indonesia is also famous for its diverse, albeit small, variety of specialty coffees, such as "Coffee Luwak" (known as the world's most expensive coffee) and "Coffee Mandailing."
Coffee was first introduced to Indonesia by the Dutch, who planted coffee trees on the island of Java. Later, in the 17th and 18th centuries, coffee production rapidly expanded to the Bogor and Sukabumi regions of West Java. Because Indonesia has an ideal climate for coffee production, coffee production quickly expanded from Java to Sumatra and Sulawesi, and coffee farms were established on other islands. Sumatra, the largest island, currently accounts for 50 of all Indonesia's coffee production. Indonesia's coffee plantations cover a total area of approximately 1.25 million hectares, of which 950,000 hectares are Robusta plantations and 350,000 hectares are Arabica plantations.
Robusta coffee is grown in many central regions of Indonesia, including Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, and Flores. These coffee plants grow in highlands ranging from 400 to 900 meters above sea level. The most important Indonesian Robusta coffee beans are grown in Lampung, Bengkulu, Temanggung, Dampit, Flores, Pupuan, and Toraja. Robusta coffees from these regions exhibit a slightly acidic, full-bodied character. Flavor notes often encompass seductive elements of dark chocolate, caramel, and spices.
For those seeking a smooth and light coffee, Indonesian Sumatra coffee offers a premium coffee experience. Ali Ziya Zade: These coffee beans are carefully selected from Indonesia's qualified coffee farms and are produced on Sumatra, Indonesia's largest island. The coffee's name and characteristics vary depending on the island's geography.
The processing method that highlights the coffee's aroma is locally called Giling Basah (wet grinding or wet hulling). This processing method, unique to Indonesia, distinguishes Sumatran coffee from other coffees. This processing method, which highlights the aroma of Sumatran coffees, generally grown in the Mandheling or Gayo Mountains regions, first removes the beans' hulls. The beans are then left to rest in bags of water for at least a day to ferment. For drying, the beans must have a moisture content of at least 5 . This process reduces the moisture content to 10 . After drying, the beans take on a green color. In the final stage, the beans undergo a final drying process, where the moisture content is reduced to 10 . This process reveals the unique taste, aroma, and character of Sumatran coffee beans.
Tasting Notes
The flavor of Sumatran coffees varies depending on the region they are grown in. Mandheling is a full-bodied coffee with dried fruit and exotic notes. Mandheling Reserve is balanced, low in acidity, and generally the most preferred Sumatran variety. Syrupy notes generally predominate. Gayo is full-bodied, with cocoa, exotic fruit, caramel, fresh leafy, and earthy notes.
Flavor Profile
Low acidity is a key characteristic of Indonesian Sumatra coffee, offering a smoother taste and often preferred by those who enjoy a milder coffee. It also has a distinctive aroma and notes of chocolate and almond. Due to the wet processing method, Sumatra coffee is generally dark in color. Due to the characteristics of the soil in which it is grown, it is particularly ideal for those with stomach issues, as its low acidity has a gentler effect on the digestive system.
