Sulawesi Wet Hulled Messawa Pak Yulias
Sulawesi Wet Hulled Messawa Pak Yulias
Thick body and low acidity draw attention to foresty rustic notes and deep toned roast flavors. Dark cocoa, mossy peat, scorched wood, leather, loose leaf tobacco, long, bittersweet finish. Full City to French. Good for espresso.
Full Cupping Notes
This wet hulled Sulawesi lot shares a lot in common with coffee from Sumatra. The culmination of thick body and low acidity really draw your attention to the potent rustic notes and deep toned roast flavors found in the cup. Foresty smells are released from the grinds, rustic sweetness, pine sap, aromatic wood, and earthy raw cacao pods. The wet aroma is deeper toned, dark cocoa dominating the profile, with leafy green accents of tarragon and Italian parsley. The brewed coffee has strong wet hulled character, which is to say the underlying roast tones are accented by woodsy earth notes, like mossy peat, scorched wood, and leather. There's also a bit of loose leaf tobacco as it cools, and the finish has some dry nut aspects, though long and bittersweet. I recommend Full City or darker to draw out the brooding characteristics, which will also add a lot to an espresso blend. We often use 1:1 with Brazil for classic-toned chocolaty shot, or with dry process Ethiopia for those who enjoy fruited bittersweets.

Origin & Farm Notes
This coffee comes from a collector named Pak Yulias in Messawa region, Western Sulawesi. Collectors are intermediaries of sorts who buy coffee from small holder farmers, typically in the nearby villages, and then finish the processing and drying of the coffee at their own mills. The coffee is typically only dried 50% moisture when it's purchased by the collector, who then takes it back to their own mill and removes the fruit mucilage and parchment layer with hulling machinery before drying the rest of the way. The removal of the parchment layer is part of what leads to the rustic flavors found in wet hulled coffee, as the seeds are exposed to the elements while still wet and volatile (read more about wet hulled/giling basah coffee here). Pak Yulias works with approximately 400 farmers in several of the towns surrounding Messawa, with an altitude range that spans 1200 to 1500 meters.
