Java was the FIRST Indonesian island where coffee was cultivated — introduced by the Dutch East India Company in the late 1600s. The name "Java" became global slang for coffee in English, predating any other coffee origin name. Java coffee is processed differently from Sumatran coffee — most Java arabica is WASHED (not wet-hulled), producing a cleaner, brighter, more acid-forward cup than the earthy Sumatran profile.
