A
rich and full-bodied coffee, Sumatra Harimau
Tiger also presents an intense, wonderful
aroma. This coffee finishes sweet with
a lingering richness. Small landowners
whose tiny plots are scattered over high
terraced plateaus of clay produce most
of the coffee in Sumatra. The coffee grows
under full sun conditions without chemical
fertilizers or pest control. The area
farmers are responsible for the initial
stages of the coffee bean processing.
They remove the skin of the coffee cherries
with hand-operated backyard milling machines
and ferment the pulp covered beans overnight.
The Sumatran used by Lost Dutchman Coffee
Roasters goes through a "triple picking"
process, which means the beans have gone
through three cycles to remove defective
and broken beans. The result is a much
cleaner tasting cup without the "funky-ness"
found in a lot of Sumatrans. |
