The Indonesian island of Celebes produces characteristically tangy and vibrant coffee beans. The piquant flavour is complemented by the typical earthy tones associated with Indonesian coffee in general, and Celebes coffee is regarded as being good quality, full-bodied and remarkably syrupy in texture. The best known Celebes coffee is Kalosi, with its trademark sharp taste (yet with relatively low acidity) and heavy body making it a popular choice among coffee coinoisseurs.

Indonesian and Asian coffees are mostly coffea canephora, with only around 25% coming from the coffea Arabica plant. Asia-Pacific’s tropical and subtropical climate is obviously an ideal one for creating perfect coffee-growing conditions
