The Short Version

Sumatran Blue Batak- Organic At A Glance

An awesome, deep body coffee from Indonesia

Provenance

Where It Comes From

Lost Dutchman Coffee Roasters product range

Named for the indigenous Batak ethnic farmers, this triple-picked coffee grows in the Lake Toba region of Northern Sumatra. Unroasted, it takes on a deep blue hue that is a result of a unique form of processing developed in Indonesia called “wet-hulling”. This enables faster drying – which is critical, since it rains torrentially in Sumatra. It also helps develop a profound, distinctive, syrupy body.

Coffee Characteristics:
A sweet and heavy cup, combination of herbal and maple syrup. Much more delicate than an average Mandheling. Lacking heavy earthy flavors typical of Sumatrans, most likely because of the special triple-picked preparation used to remove defects during processing.

Internet orders are roasted on Tuesdays and Saturdays

Before You Order

Questions

How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?

Orders are typically shipped the same day they are roasted. So, it comes down to how fast the Post Office is. They advertise “from 1-5 business days depending on which state you’re located in.” You’ll receive tracking information via email so you can track the package’s progress.

Which grind should I use?

It’s best not to grind the beans until you’re ready to use them, so grind just before you brew. Match the grind to your brewer: coarse for French press, Medium for most drip brewers. For pour overs: Medium to coarse, whichever gives you a four minute brew time (in general). Fine to very fine for espresso depending on your equipment.

How should I store it?

Keep it in the bag it came in and put a rubber band around it. Glass containers are not great as the idea is to minimize the air (oxygen) around the beans. Unless completely full, glass containers have too much head room. If storing for up to several months, freezing is a good idea as long as the beans are completely sealed (like in the bags they come in). Studies have shown time and again that freezing, if done right, is a good option.

Can I buy this as a subscription?

Currently, subscriptions are limited to a mix of single origin varietals and blends. A single coffee type for the length of the subscription is not an option. You can see how it works on the Coffee Club page.

Do you ship outside Arizona?

Yep. All 50 states.

Can I pick up my order instead of having it shipped?

Yes, you can pick it up at Lost Dutchman Coffee House located at 12 N Center Street in Mesa. Simply select “will pick up” during checkout. We’ll send you a text (or email if you don’t receive texts) when your order is physically at the location. You’ll receive an email notification once the order is “Processed” in our system. This does not mean it is at the pick up location yet. Wait until you receive notification that says, “your order is ready for pick up”.
