This beautiful honey processed coffee comes to us from Indonesia through our friends at Forward Coffee. It is a juicy and sweet offering that boasts low acidity and is very approachable. When enjoying this Indonesian coffee you’ll instantly relax into its heavy body, round mouthfeel and sweet notes of dark fruit. As the coffee lingers you’ll notice a high level of complexity with the classic Indonesian finish. This coffee is a must try and is fabulous brewed using the Harvio V60 which will highlight the comfortable and clean flavour profile, along with the coffee’s smooth overall composure.

CATUR Coffee is a collaborative effort to improve the landscape of coffee production within Indonesia. CATUR is utilizing special yeast strains to derive flavour within the cup and this coffee belongs to the “SENJA” flavour category. SENJA means sunset in Sanskirt. Just like the different colour and stages of the sunset, this taste profile is signified by a combination of deep and complex vibrancy with an accompanying fruit sweetness and rounded body. Senja utilizes blending techniques as well as bacteria and fungi based inoculants to achieve this distinct and beautiful profile.
