Nestled amidst the lush landscapes of Desa Landih, Bangli, Kintamani, Bali, at an elevation of 1100 – 1300 meters above sea level, lies AJ Koffie Farm, a haven for discerning coffee enthusiasts. This idyllic setting provides the perfect conditions for cultivating exceptional Arabica coffee beans.
AJ Koffie Farm collaborates closely with a smallholder farmer group consisting of 5 local farmers to cultivate a diverse range of coffee varieties, including S795, Kopyol, USDA, Ateng, Cobra, and the newly introduced Komasti, an elite variety developed by the Indonesian Coffee and Cocoa Research Institute (ICCRI). Our production capacity reaches 50 tons per year.
Among our prized possessions is the Kopyol variety, a native treasure of Bangli Regency, Bali. Renowned for its distinct flavor profile reminiscent of floral notes, hints of orange mandarin, and delicate jasmine, the Kopyol has been captivating coffee connoisseurs since the 1980s.
We work hand-in-hand with local farmers, sharing sustainable practices and knowledge to ensure the continued success of this unique coffee. This collaboration fosters a strong bond with the community and ensures the legacy of the Kopyol variety lives on.
AJ Koffie Farm is committed to sustainable and environmentally conscious practices.
We believe in nurturing the land that nourishes us. Our farm practices reflect this commitment, utilizing organic fertilizers and bio-insecticides to maintain the health of the soil and the surrounding ecosystem.
This dedication to environmental responsibility ensures not only the well-being of future generations but also results in coffee beans brimming with natural vibrancy and complex flavors.
We avoid harmful chemicals such as pesticide or herbicide in cultivating our coffee beans. We believe healthy soil produces better coffee.
Our main goal is to produce good and safe products using organic fertilizers, natural pesticides and the application of sustainable agriculture to produce products that are environmentally friendly and ensure sustainable resources.
In addition, in the post-harvest process starting from drying the coffee cherries to turning them into coffee beans, we apply ICQ (International Coffee Quality) standards so that our coffee beans are free from octratoxin and mycotoxin fungi. We periodically conduct lab tests according to the 2023 Minister of Agriculture.
We use water efficiently by collecting rainwater and utilizing drip irrigation systems. This helps conserve precious water resources.
We dry our coffee beans naturally and energy-efficiently using solar-powered dryer houses with climate control.
We plant shade trees using local species to protect coffee plants from direct sunlight and promote biodiversity.
We actively promote the growth of beneficial microbes naturally present on our farm, aiding in the decomposition of organic matter and enriching the soil, fostering a healthy ecosystem for our coffee plants to thrive. This dedication to preserving local microbes ensures a healthy environment for generations to come.
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is a vital antioxidant found abundantly in coffee. This compound plays a crucial role in contributing to the health benefits and distinctive flavors of coffee. CGA is known for its various health-promoting properties, such as:
At AJ Koffie Farm, we prioritize sustainable and organic farming practices to ensure our coffee beans are of the highest quality and rich in beneficial compounds like chlorogenic acid. Our methods include:
While specific studies comparing organic and conventional coffee directly for CGA content are limited, it is understood that the growing conditions, including the use of pesticides and fertilizers, can influence the levels of phenolic compounds like CGA. Organic coffee, grown without synthetic chemicals, might have a different phenolic profile, potentially leading to higher CGA levels. This is because organic farming practices often aim to enhance soil health and plant stress responses, which can result in higher antioxidant production in plants.
