The island of Flores, 580km long and 320km wide is located east of the islands of Bali and Lombok. It consists of several volcanoes, including some which are active today. They have created a highly fertile soil for coffee growing. Here we can find a multitude of small estates of less than 1 hectare. Producers dry their coffee cherries for more than three weeks. The cherries are then dehusked, prepared and carefully selected. This specialty robusta is stored in pro grain bags which help preserve the freshness of the green beans. An attractive feature which we can notice when cupping.
