Origin of The Beans

Where does Beanetics' Java - Organically Grown beans come from?
The Region

Nestled within the Indonesian archipelago, Java has been producing coffee since the 17th century, when Dutch colonists brought it to the island. During that time, Java became the main source of coffee for the world, earning coffee the colloquial nickname of "java" that sticks to this day. Java coffee continues to hold a legendary status across the world and commands high premiums.

Koperasi Serba Usaha was founded in 2015 with the plan to blend neighboring coffees and promote higher quality lots to the global market by marketing Organic certified coffee. The growing co-op currently has about 150 members, each member averaging around 2-2.5 hectares/farm in Kayumas and Taman Dadar. Co-op members range from as young as 1st generation farmers to 4th generation farmers! Though they primarily produce coffee, it's not a year-round yielding crop, so many of the farmers also grow avocado, ginger, green beans, durian, and tobacco. Going forward, Koperasi Serba Usaha plans to expand their network by growing their member base while maintaining high quality coffee for the global market.

Process & Harvest

In the Wet Hulled, Patio Drying coffee process, cherries are first pulped, then fermented briefly before washing. The unique aspect is the early hulling of beans when they're still wet. This method imparts a distinct, earthy flavor to the coffee. Post-hulling, beans are dried on patios under the sun, developing a rich, full body and a complex taste profile. This method, popular in Indonesia, particularly enhances the coffee's natural sweetness and body, making it a favorite among connoisseurs.
