Coffee of the day: Bukit Lawang – Indonesia

Sumatran coffee in Sumatra. It beats getting your Sumatran blend from Starbucks. The coffee in Sumatra is served with lots of grinds floating on top, which eventually settle.

Coffee Of The Day - Bukit Lawang

Like in much of Asia the milk in the coffee in Sumatra comes in the form of sweetened condensed creamer. Here though you get the creamer in the can and you can dispense your own serve. I am becoming addicted to this stuff. A non coffee drinker in our tour party was even helping himself to the creamer straight from the can.

Bukit Lawang is a jungle village about 4 hours north of Medan. The town is a base for visiting the orangutan rehabilitation centre in the Gunung Leuser National Park.
