Giling Basah: The Indonesian Coffee Tradition That Changed Everything
Giling basah, Indonesia's revolutionary wet hull process, transforms necessity into art. Born in 1970s Aceh, this method removes parchment at 30-50% moisture—flipping traditional coffee processing completely.

From Sumatra's famous "Mandheling" with its syrupy body and cedar notes to Flores' emerging forest coffees, wet hulling creates Indonesia's signature jade-blue beans. Once misunderstood, today's wet-hulled coffees score 85+ in competitions.

Discover how JYN Coffee's Bajawa forest coffee represents wet hull's evolution—ancient forests meeting modern innovation. This Independence Day, taste how Indonesian farmers turned practical solutions into world-class specialty coffee.
