SUMATRA BEBAGI KEPADA

(beh•bah•gi - kay•pah•dah)

 

A richly savory cup layered with herbal depth, balanced by cacao nib richness and a subtle oak-barrel finish—crafted through Indonesia’s distinctive Giling Basah process.

The Sumatra Bebagi Kepada, sourced by Goshen Coffee Roasters, offers a distinct profile characteristic of its origin. Hailing from Indonesia, this coffee utilizes the traditional Giling Basah—or wet-hulled—method. As detailed in our processing methods explainer, this technique is renowned for producing a heavy body and low acidity, often resulting in the earthy, savory, and spice-forward qualities frequently associated with the region.

In the cup, this specific lot presents notes of herbal complexity, cacao nib, and oak-barrel. These flavors sit firmly within the darker, more grounded segments of the flavor wheel. While many coffees are celebrated for bright, fruit-forward acidity, wet-hulled Indonesian coffees are prized for their deep, resonant intensity and rustic charm. This selection highlights the unique intersection of traditional processing and regional terroir, providing a robust experience that stands apart from more delicate, washed-process counterparts.
