Sensory Description:

Sadayana Kongsi Winey process lives up to the name, boasting a complex and boozy profile that is an excellent representation of anaerobic fermentation from Indonesia. The flavor is similar to that of raspberry yogurt, tangy and sweet, with clear notes of cherry syrup, dark chocolate, and vanilla. The leading flavor characteristic is boozy, similar to red wine. The texture is velvety with a medium heavy body. The aftertaste is long and pleasant like the aftertaste of eating a dark chocolate bar.

Dial Notes:

Sadayana Kongsi Winey is a very soluble coffee, due to the fermentation, meaning the coffee will drain quickly while still achieving high extraction percentages. It is an easy coffee to brew tasting excellent at a range of parameters, however optimal extraction balances the vibrant, tangy fruit notes with rich dark chocolate.

Under-extracted brews of Sadayana Kongsi Winey became too bright, where the tangy, raspberry yogurt notes shifted toward underripe raspberry. The velvety texture dissipated at lower extractions as well. If the brew is thin and sour, grind finer to balance the profile.

Over-extraced brews of Sadayana Kongsi Winey still had fast brew times, but resulted in bitter cups that were flat and astringent. The complex fruit characteristics of the coffee were muted in over-extracted brews, and the profile was primarily dark chocolate. If the brew is flat and dull, adjust the grind size coarser to add more vibrant fruit notes.
