Natcha 8 *Rare*

Some producers consistently challenge our expectations of what coffee can taste like.

Natcha is one of those producers.

Over the past few years, we've had the privilege of working closely with Natanael Charis, affectionately known throughout the coffee world as Natcha. With every harvest, he continues to push the boundaries of coffee processing while maintaining an impressive level of clarity and balance in the cup.

This year's Lot 8 is a perfect example.

Bright tropical fruit, layered sweetness and vibrant aromatics come together in a coffee that feels both playful and refined. It is expressive without being overwhelming, showcasing the precision that has become synonymous with Natcha's work.

About the Producer

Natanael Charis, better known as Natcha, has become one of Indonesia's most exciting coffee producers through his relentless pursuit of quality and innovation.

Working closely with producers across Indonesia, Natcha combines meticulous cherry selection with advanced fermentation techniques inspired by both coffee science and the wine industry. His coffees have gained international recognition for their ability to deliver bold and distinctive flavour profiles while retaining balance, structure and drinkability.

Beyond processing, he remains committed to supporting local producers, improving quality standards and helping showcase Indonesian coffee on the world stage.

About the Lot

For Lot 8, ripe cherries undergo 36 hours of carbonic maceration fermentation using red wine yeast and lactobacillus cultures. This controlled fermentation environment encourages complex flavour development while preserving sweetness and aromatic intensity.

Following fermentation, the coffee is carefully processed and dried to stabilise the flavour profile and lock in the vibrant fruit character developed during fermentation.

The result is a beautifully expressive cup showcasing juicy Honeydew sweetness, ripe Mango character and sparkling Pear Cider complexity. It is vibrant, tropical and incredibly moreish, offering another fascinating glimpse into the creative world of Indonesian coffee processing.

A bold and expressive release from one of Indonesia's most innovative producers.
