Indonesia - Heaven Of Speciality Coffee
Being the world’s largest archipelago and located in the equator allows Indonesia to offer plenty of coffee types to the world, especially those termed as specialty coffee.There are three main coffee growing areas in Indonesia, that is Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi. Each of the coffee area has its own distinguished aroma and taste.
Today Indonesia is the world’s best producer of Arabica coffee and second only to Vietnam for Robusta coffee. Indonesia has been exporting coffee since 1711, when the Dutch East India Company sent its first shipment from Java to Europe.
