Merdeka Coffee Information

Merdeka Coffee was established in 2001 as a micro-roasting company focusing on the glorious array of wonderful Arabica coffees that are available in the Indonesian archipelago. We felt that our initial clientele, the coffee connoisseurs of Jakarta and Indonesia, were missing out on the best bean in the world….. their own! Our passion for great Indonesia and coffee has taken us all over the archipelago in search of the best and most flavorsome cherries. From North Sumatra and Java through Flores and East Timor and across to Irian Jaya, we have and continue to visit our partners on a regular basis. We believe in buying directly from the estates and the small holders we deal with- thus insuring they receive a fair price for their beans whilst we can benefit from being able to have a consultative role in the quality of the green beans we purchase. Our company philosophy is to encourage economic and social development of our partner communities through fair and equitable trade.
