sumatra pantan musara is a washed indonesian coffee from cat and cloud coffee, sourced as a cup of excellence lot from the pantan musara area of sumatra. the washed process is unusual for the region and produces a cleaner, brighter cup than the wet-hulled sumatrans most people know. expect lemon acidity, black tea structure, and a caramel sweetness that rounds out the finish. because it is a delicate, tea-like coffee, it rewards brewing methods that highlight clarity, a pour over or aeropress with a medium grind and water around 93c will let the lemon and tea notes come through without muddying the cup.
