In the 9th century, a legend emerged of an Ethiopian goatherd who noticed his goats behaving unusually energetically after eating red fruits from a mysterious tree. Curious, he tried the fruit himself and felt a surge of vitality, marking the beginning of the discovery of coffee.
From myth to reality, coffee beans traveled across continents, eventually becoming a global beverage. In the late 17th century, the Dutch introduced coffee beans to Indonesia. With its ideal climate and fertile soil, Indonesia became the first country in Asia to cultivate coffee.
Among Indonesia’s thousands of islands, Sulawesi stands out as the birthplace of Sulawesi Black Coffee, renowned worldwide for its rich volcanic soil. The “Giling Basah” (wet grinding) process sets this coffee apart, which imparts a bold and distinctive flavor – a traditional method passed down through generations.
The aroma of Sulawesi Black Coffee is unique. It evokes the scent of burnt wood smoke, with bitter, astringent, warm, and deep notes that create a captivating sensory experience.
