your hands will smell like dark earth and green cardamom after opening a bag from pawon roastery kaji. this surabaya operation sources wet-hulled sumatran mandheling that tastes like the volcanic soil it grows in. thick, syrupy body with notes of cedar and tobacco leaf. the gayo beans hit different though, brighter acidity cutting through that characteristic indonesian funk. pawon means kitchen in javanese, and these beans feel like they've been cooked low and slow over wood fire.
