Indonesia + Wolowio Village

Varietal: S795 Process: Washed Altitude: 1300 - 1600masl

Apple, Raisin, Macadamia

Produced by the Nola Wonga Farmers Group in the Bajawa region of Flores, Indonesia, this 2024 harvest is a fully washed S795 Arabica variety grown at altitudes between 1,300 and 1,600 MASL. The group was established in 2014 by Mr Felix Soba to preserve the area's organic coffee heritage against the expansion of short-term vegetable farming, focusing on sustainable practices that integrate coffee cultivation with horticultural crops to enhance local biodiversity and economic stability. The coffee undergoes a meticulous processing method involving cherry floating, hand sorting, and fermentation before being dried on raised beds, resulting in a refined flavour profile characterised by bright and floral tasting notes of elderflower, pomelo, and agave syrup.

This washed S795 from Bajawa, Flores arrives via Dark Arts Coffee, sourced from the Nola Wonga Farmers Group. Grown at 1300–1600 masl, the lot presents a balanced profile that bridges stone fruit and floral character—apple and pomelo providing brightness alongside raisin's deeper sweetness, while macadamia and agave syrup suggest richness on the finish. The addition of elderflower hints at the delicate complexity this varietal can achieve under washed processing. This is an approachable expression suited to filter methods that allow its dimensional fruitiness to unfold without excessive body.
