Brighten your morning cup with a sweet, naturally processed micro-lot. Grown beneath the shade of mountain casuarina trees in the Aileu region, Timor Leste Laklo brings an incredible burst of fresh fruit sweetness and refreshing clarity to your daily brew.
It opens with an enticing aroma of strawberry and tropical fruits, followed by distinct cup notes of ripe watermelon, juicy cherry, and sweet toffee apple. With a balanced green apple acidity and a medium body, this release finishes crisp and remarkably clean whether extracted black or poured over silky textured milk.
Sourced from steep alpine slopes across the Aileu region, where 542 dedicated farming families nurture half-hectare micro-lots beneath native forest canopies at up to 1,600 metres altitude.
Whole coffee cherries are dried slowly under the tropical sun. This natural processing allows the natural fruit sugars of the cascara pulp to infuse deep into the bean, creating intense toffee and melon flavours.
Exceptional across all brewing methods. Delicate red fruits and melon sweetness shine brightly on pour-over, while rich cherry and toffee apple notes cut beautifully through flat whites and lattes.
Timor Leste Laklo is a riot of vibrant fruit flavours from one of Australia's closest coffee-growing neighbours. Naturally processed in the mountainous north, this exceptional micro-lot offers an aromatic bouquet of strawberry and tropical fruit, followed by a mouthwatering medley of watermelon, cherry, and sweet toffee apple in the cup. With a rounded medium body and crisp green apple acidity, it delivers an uplifting, balanced coffee experience from first sip to finish.
Timor Leste Laklo originates in the rugged mountain ranges of Aileu on the north side of the main island. These steep slopes are farmed by 542 smallholders who each manage small family parcels averaging around half a hectare in size.
Grown between 1,550 and 1,600 metres above sea level beneath the canopy of native casuarina trees, the coffee cherries develop slowly under cool shade. Once harvested at peak ripeness, the community lots are combined and sun-dried on raised beds, intensifying the natural sweetness and fruity complexity of the rare Timor varietal.
Achieving a specialty grade cupping score of 85.25/100, this lot completely stood out on our cupping table for its remarkable clarity. Natural coffees can sometimes lean heavy, but the Laklo lot maintains a lively, refreshing green apple acidity and crisp finish that keeps it sweet and effortlessly drinkable.
