Frinsa Estate: Indonesia

This Ateng Super Washed lot comes from Frinsa Estate in Indonesia. Textured and fresh, it’s like biting into a crunchy, sweet apple. This coffee has a balanced, toffee-like sweetness, notes of rock melon and a hint of blueberry.

Grown in the highlands of West Java at Frinsa Estate, one of the most respected coffee producers in Indonesia. Owned & run by Wildan Mustofa, his wife, Atieq Mustikaningtyas and their son Fikri, the estate is known for its attention to detail – both on the farm and at the mill. They were among the first experimenting with different varieties and new processing methods and have been a key player in reshaping the perception of Indonesian specialty coffee in recent years.

Alongside the positive social and economic impact on the community, Frinsa’s coffee project has also resulted in sustainable long-term benefits, including water conservation and reforestation efforts.

This particular lot is made up of the Ateng Super variety – a locally developed selection of the Catimor variety known for both its high yield, disease resistance and excellent cup quality. The cherries are washed and floaters are removed. They’re pulped and fermented for 12-14 hours without any additives. The parchment is then dried on tarps in the drying yard.

We also have a Natural coffee from the same farm roasting for filter.
