Grown on a lush Indonesian island, this spicy coffee is truly one of a kind. We fell in love with Sumatran coffee in 1971, and it’s been one of our most treasured offerings ever since. The taste is distinctive and unmistakable—strikingly bold and full-bodied with rich herbals, rustic spice notes and a muted acidity. Nestlé uses Starbucks trademarks under license
