Bringing the Richness of Indonesian Green Coffee to Canada

Bringing the Richness of Indonesian Green Coffee to Canada

At Across Indonesian Seas (AIS), we are proud to announce our latest milestone: the direct purchase of premium green coffee beans from the heart of Indonesia. This marks a new chapter in our mission to connect the world through trade and bring some of the most vibrant, specialty-grade coffee to Canadian roasters, cafés, and coffee lovers.

Why Indonesia?

Indonesia is home to some of the world's most diverse coffee-growing regions. With fertile volcanic soil, unique microclimates, and generations of craftsmanship, Indonesian coffee offers distinct flavor profiles unlike any other. From the syrupy, earthy notes of Sumatra to the bright and floral complexity of Java and Sulawesi, every island tells a story through its beans.

The lot we are introducing to Canada comes from West Java, sourced in partnership with FRINSA Estate. This farm is renowned for its commitment to community, sustainability, and consistent quality. Their beans are processed with precision and care, capturing the nuances of the region's terroir.

What Makes This Coffee Special?

Our green beans are categorized as specialty coffee, a designation that isn't handed out lightly. These beans are handpicked at peak ripeness, processed using both washed and honey methods, and graded meticulously to ensure a cupping score of 85 or above.

In collaboration with FRINSA, we're able to provide full transparency from farm to cup. These beans are not just products. They are stories of smallholder farmers, innovation in post-harvest processing, and a deep respect for nature.

Specialty and High-Consumer Coffee Available

While our focus lies in premium specialty-grade beans, we also understand the importance of accessibility and volume for larger-scale roasters, retailers, and manufacturers. That's why we're offering high-consumer green coffee alongside our specialty lot. These beans maintain consistent quality, are ethically sourced, and are ideal for blends, large-batch roasting, or private-label packaging.

Whether you are seeking rare micro-lots or scalable green coffee with reliable flavor profiles, our offerings meet a range of business needs without compromising on quality or integrity.

What This Means for Canadian Roasters

For Canadian roasters and coffee professionals, this is an opportunity to offer customers something truly distinct. Indonesian coffees remain underrepresented in many cafés and retail shelves, yet their profiles provide a bold and versatile addition to any menu.

Whether you're looking to experiment with single-origin offerings, create a standout espresso blend, or secure high-volume beans for consistent production, our Indonesian green coffee delivers depth, sweetness, and a rich aromatic complexity.
