Product Rating
Details
A medium roast coffee of Arabica coffee beans from the highlands of northern Sumatra in the Malay Archipelago of Indonesia. Known for complexity, a full body and rich, smooth flavor, Arabica coffee beans grown on the island of Sumatra make for an extremely pleasurable drinking experience. Earthy overtones and lively, bold flavors make this medium roast coffee no exception. If you enjoy our Sumatran Sunset coffee, our roastmaster suggests you also try our Bali Batur coffee.Roast Indicator

From the description of the product,and previous buyers' comments, I was really looking forward to drinking it. It has a fine aroma, but beyond that I am not enjoying it at all.
The flavor is nothing spacial, certainly not bright, and not especially pleasant. I started brewing this coffee as I usually brew coffee (drip coffee maker) one tablespoon of coffee to one cup of water. I could barely drink the bitter strong coffee with a bad aftertaste. I asked a friend to try it. She sniffed the unprepared coffee, then drank some I had brewed. She found it somewhat bitter, did not particularly like it, and suggested I brew it weaker. I now use 4 TBS coffee with 6 cups of water. I still don't like it much, but it is acceptably drinkable.
I will not order this one again, nor will I recommend it.

Comments about Boca Java Sumatran Sunset Coffee:
Recently tried this flavor for the first time and was very pleasantly surprised. Typically drink Boca Sunrise in the morning but now switch back and forth with this one - slightly different flavor, but equally pleasing in all other aspects. It's a good way to maintain some variety in my coffee habit with another exceptional medium roast. It's a keeper!

Comments about Boca Java Sumatran Sunset Coffee:
I've tried a lot of beans from various places. This is my bedrock selection. I do change up now and then but these beans always stay in my rotation. That's profound, because we have excellent local roasters. None have matched Boca Java's Sumatran Sunset for me.
