Seven Sumatra Beans - Specialty Coffee & Roastery

still talking about where to get a proper cup in jakarta, and tanjung duren timur keeps coming up. seven sumatra beans sits on jl. tanjung duren timur 6 in grogol petamburan, west jakarta, which isn't the first neighborhood most people think of when they're mapping out a coffee run, but that's the point. the locals who've found it aren't quiet about it. as a roastery and café in one, they're working closer to the source than most, controlling what happens between green bean and your cup rather than outsourcing the hard decisions. that kind of focus tends to show. if you're on the west side of the city and you haven't made it to no. 196 yet, put it on the list for a weekday morning.
