East Timor: Timor Leste Hatletegeo

$16.00

This lot of coffee from Hatletegeo village comes to us by way of the group who run the Daurfusu mill in Dukurai. The main difference here, is that each individual farmer in Hateletegeo are processing their own cherry down to dried parchment before delivering to Daurfusu, rather than selling as whole cherry. In one sense, the coffees are processed in a less uniform way, each by a different individual farmer. But the differences in technique from one farmer to the next also lends to difference, and interest, and can heighten cup complexity. The village of Taurema is located in Eraulo, Letefoho, and at 1900 to 2000 meters above sea level, it's the highest region our brokers is buying from. The Hatletegeo group is made up of around a dozen farmers, totaling roughly 100 hectares of land between them, though much of that is devoted to vegetables. This is another beautiful Farm Gate coffee and an excellent choice for espresso.
