EBONY ROASTERY INDONESIA

your first sip of ebony's sumatran mandheling hits different than anything you've had from jakarta. they work exclusively with wet-hulled beans from gayo highlands, pulling out those earthy, herbal notes that make indonesian coffee so distinct. the roasting here runs darker than most specialty shops dare. bold choice. you can smell the caramelized sugars before they even grind your beans, that deep smokiness filling the small roasting room. their java beans carry hints of tobacco and dark chocolate that linger long after you've finished your cup.
