Weh Ilang coffee is grown in on of the highest valleys in the Takengon area, at approximately 1,600 meters above sea level. Temperatures there can reach the freezing point at times (typically not good for coffee!!). In the old days, farmers would light fires in their farms to deter frost from forming, especially in the July-September season.
Due to the cool climate and elevation, coffee from this area tends to take longer to ripen, which contributes to its bold, ripe fruit flavours, exquisite palm-sugar sweetness, and overall impressively clean cup with flavours that are clearly resolved (a high achievement for Sumatran coffees, which if not handled with care, can have a tendency to have unrefined, muddied flavours).
Suitable for espresso and filter coffee.
