In our roastery
Java is one of three origins we rely on heavily in rotation for single-origin dark roast offerings and darker espresso roasts. When Sumatra or Papua New Guinea offerings are unavailable, Java moves in. We really enjoy this lot roasted just before second crack or 40F past first crack. It offers just enough roastiness to pass as a dark roast while maintaining some origin characteristic.
In your lineup
This offering from Java is great for medium and dark-roast drinkers. It offers a full body cup with spicy and rich flavor notes that stand up to milk, sugar, and syrups. For subtle roastiness, take this coffee to the outliers of second crack. For a more roast-forward dark roast, get into a rolling second crack with this coffee. It can handle it. If you opt for a medium roast level, after this coffee rests for a week, it will open up with tasting notes similar to Rwanda or Burundi.

About
This coffee is a signature coffee from Frinsa Collective. Day lots are selected to match a specific profile that is representative of the Preanger region, and quality premiums are paid to separate these lots. The majority of farmers in this region are small-holders delivering wet-parchment or wet-hulled green coffee to a central mill operated by Frinsa Collective, where drying and dry milling are completed, and quality control is executed to separate lots to match this profile.
“Sunda Badak” is a name for the indigenous rhinoceros on the island.
