EXPAT. ROASTERS
Introducing the Culture of Making a Good Brew across the Island
Expat. Roasters is dedicated to supporting the growing coffee and barista community on the island. This company works closely with local Indonesian producers and farmers to source the finest quality beans. By collaborating directly with farmers within 40 kilometers of their roastery, they engage hands-on with over 50 farming families. This close relationship allows them to experiment with processing methods and farming techniques to produce the best coffee available. Over 95% of their beans are sourced within Indonesia, with a small amount of specialty coffee selected from global brokers. In all their practices, from the coffee they buy to the packaging and takeaway cups they use, Expat Roasters strives to consider the immediate and long-term impacts on the environment.
