Sumatran coffee is not thought to get its flavor from unique soil or weather conditions, but more from the unique picking, preparation and processing the beans experience.
Sumatra uses a unique semi-washed process on the beans. After picking the beans are washed and then only partially dried. The outer layer is then removed exposing a swollen grean bean. These are then dried on a patio or in the dirt. Often times, they are dried multiple times - when the outer layer is removed, by a middleman, and then once again prior to shipping. This unique drying method gives it the "forest funk" taste that Four Beans' roastmaster refers to.
Four Beans on Sumatra:
"Heavy body with a syrupy chocolate after tone. Earthy, deep, complex, full-bodied, low acidity, smoothness with a touch of forest floor "funk". Creamy richness adds to the tough of butterscotch, spice and mustiness. This stuff goes with anything, but you gotta like funk."Try some - go to our online store and order some today.
