This coffee comes from a family business, “Frinsa Estate”, which is breaking all the coffee rules and producing the cleanest and brightest washed Indonesians.
Besides the quality of the coffee, their work has a positive social and economic impact on the community. They are also promoting long-term water conservation and reforestation projects.
Frinsa Estate was founded by Wildan Mustofa, his wife Atieq Mustikaningtyas Wildan and their son Fikri in Bandung, south of Jakarta, on the island of Java.
In 2010, they started their first coffee project in Sindangkerta, Weninggalih area. This later became the main growing area at his farm, Java Frinsa Estate.
From the first year of production, Wildan has aimed to focus on quality, which requires attention and meticulous processes. While most Indonesian producers are making wet-hulled coffees, even for specialty, Wildan is focusing on fully washed.
They have a wet mill, a dry mill and a well ventilated storage space. All located at 1400 masl altitude. This means they are in full control of their product from harvesting, to grading, sorting and shipment.
Through a cooperation with the coffee research center, they have been planting a lot of different unknown cultivars. Recently, they replanted 40 hectares with Ateng Superand which has been officially released by the authorities. They also do a lot of reforestation with native species. Both, for shade and environment.
Love love love! The most interesting so far. I crave for more🤪
The best one to date. Lactic ftw!
Bold and beautiful! Totally different taste when it cooled down. An amazing journey!
Amazing aroma and flavour on this coffee! On his instagram account you can see some of the process behind this coffee gem. 🙂
Best coffee in the calendar thus far! Love the funky, fruity, wine like notes in this one.
Love this one. The whole beans almost smell like a sour beer! Delicious and fruity and tangy once brewed
Yeah, this one was special.
More balanced than the other anaerobic fermented beans I’ve previously had. Grinding corser seemed to help not have it overly funky in the cup. Nice flavors.
Yes, please!
Definitely the best in the calendar so far
Absolutely superb
Omg! Finished this one today and it’s so much fun!
O where can I get more of this!
