  • About Wahana Estate Washed - final roast | Indonesia

    Grown at 1,250–1,450 masl in Sidikalang, North Sumatra, this lot comes from Wahana Estate — the largest private coffee estate in Indonesia.

    This lot is P88, a variety with an unusual pedigree: it originated from a Dutch varietal trial in the 1980s and traces back to a Colombian Catimor, arriving via Thailand and Kenya before being planted in Sumatra.

    Unlike the Giling Basah (wet-hulled) method typically associated with Indonesian coffee, this lot is processed using the washed method. Ripe red cherries are delivered to Wahana's own on-estate mill (built in 2007), where they're washed, sorted and pulped. The parchment is fermented for 12 hours to break down the remaining mucilage, then dried over 7 days using a combination of covered patios and mechanical driers, depending on space and weather.

    This is a coffee with a very distinctive and unusual flavour profile. Tasting notes include clementine, raisin and matcha tea.

Decent but not giving the wow

With this bean I generally get a balanced acidity/bitterness profile with a hint of spices at the end.
