Indonesia Java Halu Natural Anaerobic

Java Halu Coffee is a coffee company based near Bandung in West Java with activities across the whole coffee supply chain. It all started from a hobby of drinking coffee in the morning. Its founder and owner, Rani Mayasari Partadiredja or ‘Teh Rani,’ wanted to educate herself about the coffee supply chain from farm to cup. Teh Rani decided to plant and process coffee on her own farm while training as a certified Q Grader and Q Processor. Soon, neighbouring farmers partnered up with her, inspired by her determination to share her knowledge in order to uplift her community. The processed coffees are a mix variety of Sigarar Utang and S-795 grown in Gunung Tilu District Bandung, Mount Halu and Sindangkerta Regencies West Bandung at an altitude of 1,400 - 1,600 MASL. Besides running Java Halu Coffee, Teh Rani operates two cafes in Bandung, Yellow Black Coffee and Kupie Lon and collaborated with friends to open six Hayoo coffee outlets in Garut, Cilegon, East Java to Bali. The central post-harvest / processing centre is only a 17-minute drive away from the Java Halu Coffee Farm. It spans over a 10 Ha hill area surrounded by tropical fruit plants as well as coffee plants. It is managed jointly by Teh Rani and the local coffee farmers. The Java Halu team and its partnering farmers take great care during harvest to only pick ripe cherries which are bright red, not green (under-ripe) nor too dark (over-ripe). Once the cherries are picked, they are cleaned in water and separate the floaters from the rest of the cherries.
