Komodo Fire Roast Indonesia, 1 LB

Origin and Varieties
Flores Komodo coffee is cultivated on the remote Flores Island, one of the lesser-known yet exceptional coffee regions of Indonesia. Located in the Nusa Tenggara archipelago, Flores is known for its volcanic soil and rich biodiversity, which create an ideal environment for growing high-quality Arabica beans. This region has been less affected by modern coffee cultivation practices, allowing traditional methods to thrive. The coffee from this island reflects the heritage and resilience of the region, with beans carefully harvested directly from farms and packaged with care to preserve their authenticity and exceptional flavor.

Flavor Profile and Notes
Flores Komodo coffee offers a smooth, syrupy body with low acidity, which is typical of many Indonesian coffees. Its flavor profile is rich and complex, featuring deep earthy notes, with hints of dark chocolate, tobacco, and subtle spices. This coffee also has a slightly fruity undertone, giving it an intriguing balance of sweetness and complexity. The cup finishes with a clean, mellow aftertaste, making it both bold and approachable, perfect for those seeking a full-bodied, low-acid coffee experience.

Processing Methods
The coffee beans from Flores Komodo are processed using the wet-hulling method (also known as Giling Basah), a traditional technique that enhances the coffee's full body and earthy notes. After harvesting, the beans are de-pulped, fermented, and then dried before being hulled. This method results in a coffee with distinctive depth, smoothness, and a slightly rustic character, which is characteristic of Indonesian coffees. The wet-hulling technique contributes to the low acidity and syrupy mouthfeel that make Flores Komodo so unique.

Brewing Methods
Flores Komodo’s full-bodied richness and smooth texture make it ideal for brewing methods that highlight its depth and complexity. It performs exceptionally well in a French press, where its earthy and chocolatey flavors are fully expressed. Espresso preparation intensifies its bold character, while a pour-over like V60 or Chemex brings out its subtle fruity undertones and smooth finish. Additionally, cold brew is an excellent choice for those who prefer a naturally sweet, mellow, and refreshing cup.

Flores Komodo coffee is a rare and remarkable find, offering an authentic, bold coffee experience that reflects the rich coffee traditions of the region.
