November Coffee of the Month: Indonesia Flores Bajawa Ngura

Roast Level: Medium/Dark

Flavor Profile: Rich Cocoa, Subtle Citrus, Earthy Undertones & a Smooth, Full Body

From the Volcanic Highlands of Flores, Indonesia

Our November Coffee of the Month comes from the beautiful island of Flores, part of Indonesia's Lesser Sunda Islands. Named Flores by Portuguese explorers, meaning "flowers," the island is known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, lush mountain forests, and generations of smallholder coffee farmers.

The Bajawa region, located in the highlands of central Flores near Mount Inerie, is particularly well known for its coffee production. Here, coffee is cultivated on small family farms in mineral-rich volcanic soils, where the tropical climate and higher elevations provide favorable growing conditions for Arabica coffee.

Coffee farming is an important part of the local agricultural economy, with traditional growing and processing methods passed down through generations.

In the cup, expect rich cocoa notes, a smooth, full body, and a subtle hint of citrus, complemented by the earthy, aromatic characteristics that make Indonesian coffees so distinctive.

The coffee's traditional wet-hulled processing, known locally as giling basah, contributes to its heavier body, subdued acidity, and distinctive flavor profile.

For customers who enjoy a rich, smooth coffee with plenty of character, Flores Bajawa Ngura is an excellent choice. It offers something different from traditional Central and South American coffees while remaining approachable and enjoyable.
