Location: Kintamani Highlands Varietals: Bourbon, Typica Elevation: 1299 - 1699 meters Process: Wet hulled, Patio dried Bali Blue Moon is named after the bluish hue of the bean produced from the wet-hulling process called Giling Basah in the Indonesian language. This coffee comes from small family farms where each producer uses a few acres to cultivate coffee along with citrus trees in the volcanic soils of Mount Agung in the Kintamani highlands. They hand sort their harvested cherries before depulping and fermenting them in their own farm micro-mills. After washing, the coffee is spread on patios to remove excess moisture from the parchment. Unlike conventional processing in other regions, the parchment is removed while the coffee still contains a relatively high level of moisture. This method, known as the wet-hulling process or Giling Basah, leaves the beans exposed as they continue drying on patios until they reach the ideal export moisture level—resulting in their signature bluish hue. In Bali, producers preserve a traditional rural way of life organized around the Subak Abian, a community-based cooperative system rooted in ecologically sustainable irrigation practices. These systems, developed over 1,000 years ago by Hindu priests, are guided by the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana—the balance of three sources of prosperity: harmony with people, nature, and spirit.
