Flores is a modest sized island south of Sulawesi and smack in the middle of Bali and Timor. The coffees are shade grown at elevations ranging from 1000 - 1600 meters (3200-5200 feet). A combination of S795 (an Indian variety introduced to Java during the 1950's), Typica, Catimor, and Timor hybrids varieties. The coffee is wet processed and sun-dried to 12% moisture content.
The dry aroma offers a hint of fruit whereas the wet aroma is more of bakers chocolate. The taste is well balanced, with mild to medium acidity, decent body and a nice aftertaste.

Bali Organic Blue Krishna
We just received this year's crop of Blue Moon/Blue Krishna coffee from Bali. Produced by smallholder farmers in the Kintamani highlands of Bali. Grown at 1200 to 1600 meters in elevation in fertile volcanic soil. No pesticides are used on coffee farms in Bali and all fertilizers are 100% organic.
The coffee is primarily of the Typica variety with small amounts of Catimor and Bourbon. Only ripe cherries are hand-picking and wet processed.
The coffee exhibits a pleasant aroma smooth and mellow. The taste is very well balanced and sweet. Good body, very mild acidity, and a smooth clean finish.
