French & Fire

Intense, herbal, and smoky with a hint of cloves and molasses.  Indonesia brings you strong aroma, earthy flavor and a syrupy body. As a single-origin coffee, it provides a unique experience for the adventurous coffee drinker.  The farming processing method of wet-hulling or "giling basah" in the local Bahasa language, is only practiced in Indonesia due to the humid and rainy climate.  This allows some of the fruit of the coffee cherry to remain on the bean for it to ferment before the full drying process.  This gives it the distinct rich flavor with low acidity.  

Dangerous fires, along with illegal logging in the area and the conversion of secondary forest and shrub land to oil palm plantations, continue to threaten critically endangered wildlife such as the Sumatran elephant, a subspecies of the Asian elephant, and the Sumatran tiger.  Fires ravaged at least half of animal habitats in Padang Sugihan Sebokor Wildlife Reserve.  Regulations enacted after the 2015 fire crisis broadly protected carbon-rich peatlands in the hopes of preventing future fires.  

YOU CAN HELP! For every bag of French & Fire purchased, Pour & Ponder will donate $1 to the Wildlife Conservation Society to help support these endangered species.
