Sumatra- Kerinci is most popular for its unique flavor profile, low acidity, full body, and natural rustic flavors that are best described as earthy. Most Kerinici are excellent farmers, evident from their excellent farming methods.
In addition to their primary crop rice (planted in both irrigated and non-irrigated fields), they also plant potatoes, vegetables and tobacco. Those living in the foothills of the mountains are slash-and-burn farmers, moving to new fields every few years. They plant coffee, cinnamon and cloves. The primary forest product is rattan and resin. Most Kerinci living near Lake Kerinci and other smaller lakes are fishermen.

Story
Triyono head of Koerintji Barokah Bersama Cooperative, spends most of his days doing the things he enjoys most, performing cupping tests to ensure the coffee beans produced from his cooperative has a consistent and exceptional quality. In 2012, Triyono sold vegetables and chickens for his income. Now, he is the Chairman of the Koerintji Barokah Bersama Cooperative, an award-winning coffee farmers’ organization with 320 members in Kerinci, Jambi Province. “With horticulture, I had to plant, harvest, and plant again. But with coffee, I can plant once and reap the benefits every two weeks. Coffee trees also don’t use a lot of pesticides that harm the environment,” said Triyono. When asked about his motivation, Triyono said enthusiastically: “It’s not just about regular coffee. In the future, more people will be looking for high-quality coffee that is produced sustainably. That requires innovation, and youths are the key players in making this happen. If not us, then who else.”
