Roast Profile: Thick, Sweet, Heavy Body. Dark, Shiny Roast Color. Sweetness: This is as Heavy, Thick, Sweet & Dark as it gets!

In the very north of Toraja are the highest growing areas where coffees are brought by the farmers down to the local markets of Sapan and Minanga to sell to collectors for the larger mills. A lot of the cup quality of Sulawesi coffees is the result of the post-harvest process, the wet-hull method, called "Giling Basah."

Sulawesi rivals the best Sumatran coffees with deep-toned flavors and maple-syrupy body that results in a stunning, clearer taste profile. Classic Sumatran earthiness is there, but at lower levels, allowing a hint of chestnut or other nuttiness to come through. The darker roast levels are where this coffee really begins to develop intense, thick, oily body and dark, chewy cup flavors. The aromas of this coffee conjure up images of the rich compost from a forest floor--moss, crushed leaves, and wild mushrooms--offset with a sweet, butterscotch finish.

4 for four!!!!! February 16, 2008
Reviewer: angelo marcialis from Chester, NY United States  
Just finished my 1st pot of this bean, and once again I tip my hat to the good folks @ "Old Bisbee Roasters"! I find this coffee to be more light hearted than the others I have had, but this brew is still strong in character and  very earthy. As described on this site, there is "the flavor of cinnamon spice will excite your taste buds!" I even tried a small cup w/o sugar!
On a side note.......the turn around on my orders is very impressive, and the phone message was most appreciated! I have been telling everyone in NY about this company!!!
