About

It represents one of the oldest cultivated Arabica lineages in Indonesia, descending from the original Dutch colonial plantations. Jember produces a clean, bright cup with medium body and gentle sweetness, though it is increasingly rare as farmers transition to higher-yielding disease-resistant varieties.
