To keep roasted coffee beans fresh and flavorful for as long as possible, follow these key storage principles:

  1. Use an airtight container: Store coffee beans in an opaque, airtight container to protect them from oxygen and light exposure. Mason jars, dedicated coffee canisters, or even the original packaging (if it has a resealable zipper and one-way valve) can work well.
  2. Keep beans cool and dark: Store the container in a cool, dark place like a cupboard or pantry, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Avoid storing coffee near the oven or on countertops that receive strong afternoon sun.
  3. Buy smaller quantities: Purchase coffee in amounts you can use within 1-2 weeks to ensure maximum freshness.
  4. Avoid refrigeration and freezing: Generally, it’s best to avoid storing coffee in the refrigerator or freezer. Coffee is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture and odors from its surroundings, which can negatively impact flavor.
  5. Grind just before brewing: For the best flavor, grind your beans immediately before brewing. This minimizes exposure to air and preserves the coffee’s aromatics.

Additional information:

  • Freshness window: Coffee is best consumed within 3-10 days after roasting for filter brewing methods, and 5-12 days for espresso.
  • Freezing exception: If you must freeze coffee (e.g., for long-term storage of bulk purchases), ensure it’s in a truly airtight container and only remove what you need for a week at a time to avoid condensation.

The Story of Sumatra Essence

In the verdant embrace of Sumatra Gayo’s highlands, “Sumatra Essence” is born. This exceptional coffee, a blend of the distinct Tim Tim, Ateng Super, and Lini-S (S-975) varieties, thrives in the fertile volcanic soils and the nourishing climate of elevations between 1,300 to 1,450 meters above sea level.

It is here, in the heart of Indonesia, that the true spirit of Sumatran coffee comes to life. Adopting the revered wet-hulled processing unique to the region, “Sumatra Essence” embodies the rich coffee heritage of Sumatra. This meticulous process involves removing the coffee cherry’s outer layer shortly after harvesting, then allowing the beans to dry in the ambient Sumatran air, enhancing their intrinsic flavors and imparting a depth of aroma that is both complex and inviting.

Upon tasting, “Sumatra Essence” unwraps a world of flavors, beginning with an aromatic introduction of spice and herbal notes, transitioning into a deep, cocoa-infused earthiness, and finishing with a subtle yet captivating tobacco essence. The coffee’s body is robust, striking a balance between bitter and sweet, while its low acidity ensures a smooth, universally appealing cup.

“Sumatra Essence” is more than a coffee; it’s a celebration of Sumatra’s coffee culture, a testament to the land and its dedicated farmers. Our commitment at Coffee Civet is to bring to our customers a coffee that not only showcases the pinnacle of Sumatran coffee cultivation but also respects and upholds the principles of sustainability and ethical sourcing.

Immerse yourself in the “Sumatra Essence” experience, and let each sip transport you to the lush landscapes of Sumatra Gayo, where tradition, nature, and a passion for coffee culminate in a blend that’s as rich and complex as the land from which it hails.
