The coupling of Indonesia’s giling basah method with the meticulous aging over several years develops this coffee’s precious profile. Aged Sumatra is distinctly woody and spicy with a roasted character and complex notes of cocoa and tobacco.

About this coffee

Origin

High up around Gayo Mountain, in the Aceh province of the island of Sumatra, the farmers practice the giling basah method of processing coffee, much as they do across Indonesia. But then these Aceh farmers add a meticulous twist.

The first split is roasted intensively but for short time, reaching a medium dark colour. This is done to accentuate the notes created by the aging process: Woody cedar with a sweet after-taste.

The second split is roasted for longer to add intensity and a velvety body to the final cup.

  • It is particularly appealing to some drinkers who like stronger coffee styles

What people say

  • Is anyone else going gaga over the Sumatra pods? It absolutely floored me with how good it is. Got one sleeve to try it and accidentally finished it in 3 days because I suddenly didn’t want any other pods. I tend to generally regret buying

  • I bought two sleeves of the Aged Sumatra pods when it first came out, and it’s probably my favourite range to date.

  • price point, I expected something special. Sadly, to me, it did not live up to the hype. I felt like it was a bit watery and lacked the complexity I get from some of my other favorite capsules. Usually I'm more into Kazaar, India and other
