Timor is a small island off the coast of Southeast Asia, yet it is able to hold its own in the global coffee industry. Coffee is a significant driver in Timor’s economy as one of the main export crops, providing livelihoods for a major portion of its population. Harvest season spans from May to September, where Arabica beans account for most of its coffee production. You can typically expect washed coffee with sweet notes of chocolate, a subtle earthy taste, and low acidity.

Indonesia is a Goliath in the coffee industry as one of the top five producers of Robusta coffee in the world. It’s worth noting that smallholder farmers are the keystone of the industry, running the majority of coffee plantations in the country. Beans in Indonesia are typically processed using the Giling Basah or wet-hulled method, producing coffee with a dark, bold, and earthy profile. You can typically expect coffee with a heavy body and low acidity, as well as a complexity of notes such as dark cocoa, wood, and spice.
