Indonesia Kamala Anaerobic | Choco Lava Cake & Spices 

A dessert in a cup. This innovative anaerobic Sumatran coffee delivers a rich, syrupy body with intense notes of molten chocolate cake, blackcurrant, and brown spices.

The Origin Story

From the Central Aceh region of Sumatra, this lot redefines expectations for Indonesian Coffee Beans. It features the unique Sigarar Utang variety processed using the innovative Kamala Anaerobic method—a controlled, oxygen-free fermentation designed to amplify deep fruit and spice notes. This bold technique moves beyond traditional Sumatra profiles, creating a rich, complex, and memorable flavor profile perfect for a dark, satisfying filter cup.

Roast Philosophy

This lot is developed to a Medium Filter Roast profile. The development is carefully controlled to balance the earthiness of Indonesian coffee with the dark fruit intensity of the Kamala Anaerobic process. The goal is to maximize the notes of brown spices and Choco Lava Cake, ensuring a rich, syrupy body that still maintains clarity in the filter method.

Degassing Advice (Expert Tip)
