Tuang Coffee was born in 2014, when Andre Tuang left his job in Jakarta to work with farmers in Manggarai, on the island of Flores. Back then, local coffee was usually blended with other origins and sold as commodity, with little reward for growers. Today the group has more than 2,500 members, and this lot comes from around 250 farmers in the villages of Nati, Mbohang and Gulang. Farmers receive training every season, pre-harvest financing and one transparent cherry price, and grow coffee without herbicides, using organic compost and shade trees. Washed and dried on raised beds for 7 to 10 days, it offers cassis, ginger, black tea, cherry and dark chocolate.
