{"product_id":"finca-ali-semendo","title":"Finca Ali Semendo","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the coffee Devon Laksana took to the Indonesia Brewers Cup, Medan League, in 2026, representing TORU. Aromatic, fruity, sweet. Those are the three words his customers kept coming back with when he asked them, and a roaster's job is to go and find exactly that, then stay out of its way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaymond Ali processes it at Finca Ali in Semendo in South Sumatra. Semendo has been robusta country for generations and has only lately turned toward arabica, so there is no inherited house style here to lean on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis dark room natural runs 120 hours. No sun at any point. The cherry dries slowly in a cold dark room instead, where the drop in temperature and the absence of light keep the fruit from ever getting ahead of him. It arrives sweet, fruity and aromatic in the green, before a roaster has touched it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe roast it on the Stronghold S7X without chasing first crack. Energy goes into a stretched Maillard instead, three minutes of drying against six of Maillard, building sugar and aromatics rather than development. It is a longer road to the same three words.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHot, it is grape and orange over brown sugar. As it cools the grape turns to apple, showcasing high quality tartaric and citric acidity. Brown sugar holds the finish at both temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toru Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":45245513433131,"sku":null,"price":149000.0,"currency_code":"IDR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/4458\/0139\/files\/FINCA_ALI_SEMENDO.png?v=1788282944","url":"https:\/\/toruiki.com\/products\/finca-ali-semendo","provider":"Toru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
