About this Product
More Information
The latest edition to our premium range comes from ‘Kevenka Coffee’ in East Java. Java is a region with long history of coffee production known best for producing coffees with richer and darker profiles, however what first drew us to this crop was it’s un-characteristically sweet and fruity flavours, something un-typical of Java. Once we cupped and brewed it, we fell in love and knew it had a home on our premium range, showcasing the best of what coffee can be worldwide. This coffee is bursting with rich fruity sweetness, with a boozy undertone that creates a luxurious coffee experience.
Kevenka was formed by brothers Kevin & Kenny Soewondo from Surubaya, East Java. Their journey in coffee started by opening a cafe in Surubaya, before deciding to roast coffee themselves. Their inquisitivity about the supply of green coffee eventually led them to start processing green coffee themselves from the highlands in and around Mt Ijen to supply their roastery. The next natural step was to start selling green coffee in the expanding internal specialty market as well as exporting coffee.
Mt. Ijen, Indonesia is a mountain located in East Java, around 3,5 hours’ drive from Bali. It is a somewhat active volcano in East Java province, Indonesia. A popular tourist destination is its crater which has the world's biggest acid lake, bright turquoise in colour, that burns with a blue fire from the sulphur in the water.
We love both the story and coffee of Kavenka and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.
