Our farmer network

Every coffee we import is traceable to a specific farm and farmer. These are not anonymous lots. They are the work of dedicated growers we know by name, visited in person, and are committed to for the long term.

Java Frinsa Estate

West Java · Bandung Highlands

Java Frinsa Estate

Founded in 2012 by the Mustofa family in direct response to deforestation in the highland regions. Now led by Fikri Mustofa into its next generation, Frinsa combines meticulous processing with shade-grown cultivation across six West Java growing zones. Cupping scores available upon request.

Frinsa Collective

West Java · Bandung Highlands

Frinsa Collective

A network of smallholder farmers working under Frinsa's quality framework, with cherries collected and processed under direct Frinsa supervision. These lots extend Frinsa's standards of agronomy and traceability while providing better market access for partner growers.

Pusat Kopi Nusantara

West Java · Cianjur Highlands

Pusat Kopi Nusantara

Led by Rivo Trie Septiadiguna, PKNI is a community-first specialty coffee operation in the Cianjur highlands of West Java. Rivo supports a network of dedicated farmers with expertise in agronomy and processing, responsible for 700 tonnes of specialty coffee annually. Our connection to PKNI began when our teammate Hadi met Rivo on the ground in Cianjur.

Jambi Province · Sumatra

The Etalase Foundation

A network of roughly 22 farmer-run post-harvest units across seven regencies of Jambi, Sumatra, coordinated from a central hub in Jambi City, with production handled by its partner Alko Sumatra Kopi. Almost no relationship in North America can offer all four coffee species from a single traceable origin: the network grows Arabica, Robusta, Liberica, and Excelsa, from national-park highlands near 1,700 metres down to sea-level peatland. Many farmer groups grow coffee under Indonesia's Social Forestry program, in forest landscapes where oil palm is prohibited, and farmers are paid before the harvest begins.

The AIS team at Alko Sumatra Kopi, Kerinci

Sumatra · Kerinci Highlands

Alko Sumatra Kopi

The production and export side of our Etalase partnership in Kerinci. Alko handles classic processing across natural, honey, fully washed, and semi-washed lots, and its warehouse is where the collective's coffees are consolidated, graded, and prepared for shipment. An early supporter of QThinkX, a blockchain-based traceability platform, Alko is campaigning to make farm-level transparency the added value of Kerinci coffee on the global market.

Agrotropik Nusantara, Kayu Aro, Kerinci

Sumatra · Kerinci Highlands

Agrotropik Nusantara

A family-run producer and exporter at the foot of Mount Kerinci, Indonesia's highest volcano, founded around 2009 to reduce encroachment into Kerinci Seblat National Park by giving farming families a living from coffee. Led by Emma Fatma, who spent nearly two decades with WWF Indonesia, AGTN works with roughly 680 to 800 farmers across Arabica and Robusta, farming without synthetic chemicals since 2012 by the producers' account.

Flores · Bajawa Highlands

Rumah Kopi Bajawa

A farmer cooperative paired with a dedicated processor on Flores, where coffee arrived with missionaries in 1930 and became the identity and culture of the Bajawa people. The 33 member farmers of Koperasi Ekoheto Sejahtera grow Lini S795 on volcanic Andosol slopes farmed without pesticides or synthetic fertilizer for around two decades, supporting more than 260 families in the highlands of Ngada Regency.

Koperasi Mandalagiri, Cikandang, Garut

West Java · Garut Highlands

Koperasi Mandalagiri

A cooperative of 75 farmers in Cikandang, growing Bourbon on the volcanic slopes of Gunung Papandayan and Gunung Mandalagiri under Indonesia's Social Forestry program. The cooperative behind Garut's Yellow Bourbon development runs a deliberately circular operation, turning wastewater into liquid fertilizer and coffee pulp into compost and charcoal, and supports around 300 people in the village coffee economy.

Why Indonesia

Indonesia is the world's fourth largest coffee producer, yet only a fraction of what it grows reaches specialty buyers. We're changing that.

Volcanic Highlands

West Java's coffee grows in volcanic landscapes shaped by fertile ash derived soils and high elevation growing conditions. That combination helps create the structure, sweetness, and complexity that make the region's best coffees stand out.

More Than 300 Years of Coffee History

Coffee has been grown in Indonesia since 1696, giving the country more than three centuries of coffee heritage. Java helped shape that story early on, and today that history continues through producers who are redefining what Indonesian coffee can taste like.

Smallholder and Community Driven

Indonesia's coffee sector is built by smallholders. More than 95 percent of production comes from growers with plots averaging about one hectare, and there are roughly 2 million coffee farm households across the country. In West Java, farmer cooperatives are gaining recognition, but the region is still emerging globally, which means many skilled farmers remain underrepresented in specialty markets.
