About this coffee :
Located about 7 hours drive to the North, of Medan, the capital City of North Sumatra Province. They operate two mills and invest in livelihoods by buying premium beans. Pollung means "a dialogue" in Batak language.
The wet-hulled process commences with a standard pulping step to remove the cherry skin, followed by the beans' placement in fermentation tanks, where a significant portion of the mucilage layer remains intact on the parchment. Overnight, the beans undergo a dry fermentation within their pulp.
Subsequently, they undergo a washing process. Following this, the parchment is dried briefly until it reaches a 25 to 30% moisture level. Producers have the option to sell their coffee as wet parchment or partially dried parchment to buying centres, which then hull the coffee at the elevated moisture level, facilitating a faster drying process.
The term "triple picked" describes the meticulous preparation of green beans, indicating that the coffee has undergone three rounds of sorting and cleaning before being packaged and shipped.
This coffee is full of surprises, it's the most vibrant wet-hulled coffee that we ever tasted! You'll get a delightful vibrancy of bergamot refreshing notes, paired with honey sweetness and Earl Grey tea aromatics. This coffee will definitely give you a big wow from an Indonesian coffee.
