East Java - Konang Springs Washing Station

Konang Springs Washing Station

If you like heavy fruit flavors, specifically blue berry, than this coffee is for you! 

The East Java Konang Spring Natural continues to be one of the most expressive and exciting coffees available in the Marketplace. This year's lot is very fruit-forward, bright, and syrupy with a clean finish. 

This is NOT a flavored coffee....  although, you might think so.

Farm story:
This exceptional coffee is grown in the foothills of Mount Argopuro in the Situbondo Regency of the East Java Province of Java Island. The villagers who grow the coffee come from Tlogosari Village, and together form the Pokmas Walida Cooperative led by Pak Muhlisin. The cooperative partners with exporter, Belift Green Beans, to bring high-quality, transparent coffees like this one to new markets. This naturally processed coffee is painstakingly cared for in the extremely humid environment to ensure consistency and quality. This coffee was dried on raised beds for 15-16 days and stirred once every hour before being patio dried for an additional 8-10 days. Most coffee farmers in Indonesia grow a very small amount of coffee alongside crops like tomatoes, chili peppers, and ginger. In the past, the combined remoteness of their farms and fragmented production system have made it very difficult to trace Indonesian coffee—the team at Belift is working to create more transparency by working directly with the farming communities in Argopuro and Bondowoso and being hands-on with every step of production, from seed to processing to export.
