   This month's  Featured Coffee:

Organic Sumatra Gayo Mountain

When we first discovered this Sumatra coffee, the Japanese had just discovered it as well. Rumor had it that a single cup of Gayo Mountain was selling for $20 in several major Tokyo restaurants. The supplies were being bought up in the orient. We have been fortunate in both the crop being developed to produce more beans and our supplier reserving out needs.

Gayo Mountain is a volcanic area isolated in a western sector of the island. It's remote location, air and volcanic ash provide for perfect growing conditions. Our particular crop is internationally certified to be organic and free of all chemical additives. It is handpicked and patio dried. No effort is sparred to make this coffee perfect.

When people ask us for prized Kona coffee, we suggest first trying our Organic Sumatran. We truly believe it is a better coffee and at 1/3 the price, it is a bargain. In the wake of the Tsunami, we assume prices will rise. (portions of the profits from this coffee are helping to restore normality)

The cup qualities are extraordinary. It is low in acidity, yet it's body is rich and it's aroma daunting. For those who prefer to sip coffee rather than gulp it down, this is a treat. A truly great after dinner cordial.
