Flores - Ikang Yeast-fermented Natural

About This Coffee

This coffee is a single-origin lot from the Bajawa region of Flores Island, Indonesia, grown at an altitude of 1,300 to 1,500 meters. Produced by the Mahataman Coffee Bajawa project, it features a blend of Kartika, Timor Hybrid, and Caturra varieties. The cherries undergo a natural process with the addition of yeast during fermentation to enhance aromatic development. The flavor profile is characterized by notes of maraschino cherry, fruitcake, and a four-spice blend, offering a deep, silky body with bright acidity and a dense, sweet finish.

Nektar

A husband and wife team founded Nektar in 2017 in Kelowna, choosing a name inspired by nectar to represent the sweetness and natural essence they seek in every roast. Based on Dickson Avenue, the roastery serves the Okanagan Valley with small batch roasting that emphasizes medium profiles, balancing sweetness and body across origins from Colombia, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Brazil, and Costa Rica. Ethically sourced beans and a focus on community gathering define the operation, with a wholesale program supplying local Okanagan cafes and restaurants. The roastery also supports local artists and musicians, reflecting a philosophy that positions coffee as something that brings people together in the valley's laid back, outdoor lifestyle. A subscription service is available for regular customers who want Nektar delivered to their door.
