Indonesia is a country that consists of a wide
variety of indigenous and traditional cultures, including Food, As we know,
there are about six thousand more traditional Indonesian cuisine and among so
many thousands of these are snack.
Indonesian cuisine is a reflection of diversity culture and tradition Archipelago and occupies an important role in
the national culture of Indonesia in general. In addition to Indonesian food is
also renowned for drinks.
In Indonesia, we also often find a wide variety of
restaurants that sometimes shaped shops, cafes and great restaurants. This time
I will not talk about Indonesian food clearly. Because the core of this article
are the author would like to introduce a cafe that is quite unique.
Why this café is unique ? because main priority
of this one is Coffee. As we know that Indonesia
was the fourth largest producer of coffee in the
world in 2014. Coffee in Indonesia began with its colonial history, and has
played an important part in the growth of the country. Indonesia is located
within an ideal geography for coffee plantations, near the equator and with
numerous mountainous regions across the islands, creating well suited
micro-climates for the growth and production of coffee.
Indonesia
produced an estimated 540,000 metric tons of coffee since 2014. Of this
total, it is estimated that 154,800 tons was required for domestic consumption
in the 2013/2014 financial year. Of the exports, 25%
are arabica beans; the balance is robusta. In general,
Indonesia’s arabica coffees have low acidity and strong body, which makes them
ideal for blending with higher acidity coffees from Central America and East
Africa.
Before we talk about my recommend café let’s me
explain a few of Indonesian Coffee.
First let me introduce you to Aceh Gayo
The Gayo highland in Aceh, stretching as long as the back of Mount Barisan on Sumatera island, is one of the top arabica producers in Indonesia. Much to the favour of the fertile volcanic soil, Gayo delivers a distinct and unique coffee quality, the uniqueness that takes coffee enthusiasts to the taste of Ethiopia and Latin America, characterised by the floral notes such as black tea to dried-fruit, though still much in touch with the classic and notable Sumateran Arabica spicy characteristics, consisting the likes of ginger, clove, and lemongrass.
Planted at higher than 1,400 meters above sea level, and upon the crafting of the magnificent hands of the local farmers, Aceh Gayo is undoubtedly one of the best in Indonesia.
Next there is Toraja Coffee, Toraja Coffee from Sulawesi (Celebes) is a multi-dimensional coffee flavor with a full-bodied richness. A good Toraja is well-balanced with undertones of ripe fruit and dark chocolate. Toraja coffee tends to have a relatively low-toned yet vibrant acidity, though usually slightly more acidic and with less body than Sumatran coffees and more earthy than Java Arabica.
Like Sumatran coffees, the cup profile of Toraja has been called deep and brooding, with muted fruit notes and rustic sweetness and often a pungent spicy quality. A Dark Roast is recommended.
For this one I recommend you to enjoy some café
which located at Jalan Sulawesi behind Aneka Pavilion building, The Name of
this café is EIS Cafe
EIS
itself
acronym from Everyday Is Sunday, it has
philosophy we can enjoy everyday with family because Everyday Is Sunday.
Frankly, the location of EIS Café is hard to find,
but if we follow a pamphlet mark around Jalan Sulawesi, we can find it, Easily.
Beside various of Coffee, it also available various
of Indonesian cuisine such as Soto Kudus, Rawon and Snack. It also provides a Turkish coffee, which is indeed original from Turkey one of the
countries in Europe. This coffee is famous for the distinctive aroma of spices.
