Sulawesian coffee is typical Indonesian, low acidity with full-bodied earthiness. This semi-washed to washed coffee is very similar to Sumatran coffee in cup profile.

The Dutch colonists called the island of Sulawesi Celebes, and you will still sometimes see people refer to the coffee or the island as Celebes.

If you like Sumatrans, consider giving Sulawesi a try as an origin.
