What the roaster tells us.

Bies Penantan comes from the women-led Ketiara Cooperative in Aceh, Sumatra, where Stumptown has worked with chairwoman Ibu Rahmah since 2013. Smallholders grow it organically in a group of highland villages around Takengon, where steady rain allows a harvest almost all year. The cooperative also trains its members in organic farming. Stumptown lists dark chocolate, baking spice and tropical fruit and describes a dense, juicy body. It’s a good fit for French press. It comes in 10.5 oz bags.

About coffee from Indonesia

Indonesian coffee, especially from Sumatra, is often wet-hulled, a local method that hulls the beans while they're still wet. That gives the earthy, full-bodied, low-acid cup Sumatra is known for.

The people behind this coffee

Meet Stumptown

Stumptown Coffee Roasters opened its first café in Portland, Oregon, in 1999, in a space that used to be a beauty parlor called Hair Bender. The blend named after that shop is still the espresso in every Stumptown café. The company buys much of its coffee through Direct Trade relationships, some going back well over a decade, like its Ethiopia Mordecofe, offered every year since 2006. Stumptown is a certified B Corp, and its single origins usually come in 10.5 oz bags with a named farm, washing station or cooperative behind them.
