Sulawesi: Toraja Sapan Minanga, Tana Toraja

In the highlands of Tana Toraja, the Sapan Minanga area is renowned for coffees grown at 1,300–2,000 masl by smallholders cultivating Typica, Catimor, and S795. Cherries are handpicked and processed at micro-mills using Indonesia’s signature wet hulling (giling basah), a method that yields plush texture and a distinctive bluish hue. Taken to a dark roast, this lot centers on dark chocolate and molasses, with vanilla, black licorice, and roasted almond rounding the profile. Acidity sits very low and smoothly integrated, the body is heavy and coating, and the finish is long, sweet, and clean comforting, composed, and unmistakably Toraja.
