Jawa, not Java is the original name of Indonesia's main islands. In the West part of Jawa, lies wonderful spots for the agricultural fields with its high elevation and developed infrastructure.
This special coffee was from Yausep Kusuniyanto, a farmer in Ciwidey, West Jawa. His processing center is at his humble home which only allows small batches capacity and requires mostly manual labor. We could see right away that his determination and commitment to producing good coffee was strongly present in the coffee he made for us during our visit. The taste is clean earthy, and delightful.

Kusuniyanto's small coffee farm is located an hour of off-road driving from his home. The long drive showed us more about the farm. Due to its high altitude, no insects could live such high elevation. It makes an ideal environment for his farm to be herbicides and pesticide-free.

Our cup of coffee can be very much rewarding, not just for us, but also for the hard working farmers like Yausep Kusuniyanto who are persistent in producing better, high-quality coffee.
