Organic and Rainforest Alliance Certified, the Bali Blue Moon is not a typical coffee! This superb bean exudes an incredible unique flavor, with taste notes of dark chocolate, molasses and a mild hint of spice. You’ll savor each divine sip, embracing the creamy, syrupy finish.
We recommend the Bali Blue Moon at the Full City roast level because it allows the complexities of this single origin coffee to shine with all its natural goodness, giving you the opportunity to taste the uniqueness of an incredible coffee. It’s interesting to taste the initial fruit of the bean, only to pleasantly notice the chocolate as it continues to linger on.
Because coffee is quite personal, 3rd Wave Coffee Roasters are always happy to roast your coffee to your desired roast level. Of course, the darker roast definitely changes the cup as you may expect, adding a subtle earthiness to the Bali Blue Moon as the characteristics of the roast begin to emerge.
Did you know the Bali government does not allow pesticides and all fertilizers are organic? Wow! How awesome is that!
Among the archipelago nation of Indonesia lies its hidden Jewel, the island of Bali. The eruption of the Gunung Agung Volcano in 1963 caused a delay in the progress of modern-day coffee cultivation on Bali. In response to this situation, the government enacted programs in the 1970’s and 1980’s to help rejuvenate coffee production. With the distribution of coffee seedlings to local farmers, an island wide coffee growing campaign began. Today, the coffee growing area in Bali is an estimated 7,500 hectares. The Kintamani highlands, where most coffee is grown, sits atop a large volcanic plateau between 1300-1700 meters altitude. Coffee tree varieties include a high percentage of Bourbon and Typica, along with shade trees such as Erythrina, Albizia, Tangerine and Orange. The use of pesticides is prohibited on Bali and all fertilizers are 100% organic. The Subak Abian is a traditional farming structure organization in Bali, similar to a farmer cooperative. There are 13 different Subak Abians that are currently growing and processing coffee. The “SA” oversee both agricultural technology and religious activities. The promotion of improved coffee growing practices is expected to enhance not only agricultural technology but social and economic standing in Bali as well. This Jewel among coffees stands out with smooth body and overwhelming chocolate flavors.
