    Products

    What is the difference between Premium and Peaberry coffee?

    Both Premium and Peaberry coffee come from the same Arabica plant. 


    Peaberry

    There is a natural genetic mutation that happens in about 10% of the arabica coffee crop that causes the fruit to have only 1 bean instead of the usual 2 beans. This exceptional coffee is called peaberry. Our peaberry coffee has a fantastic chocolate aroma. This is natural and is a result of the different development as well as the size density and shape of the peaberry beans. Try our Peaberry coffee, we are sure you will love it. 


    Premium

    The other 90% of the crop is or amazing premium Arabica beans, we sort our beans carefully and reject beans with flaws so we only roast and ship premium quality beans. Why not try our Premuim coffee today? 

    Why are SOkopi package sizes different from other stores?

    We went to great lengths to research shipping policies and costs across several countries to come up with the best packaging and shipping methods possible. This is the reason our whole bean and ground coffe packages are, 200g and 400g instead of 250g and 500g, our approach saves you a LOT in shipping costs.The same thing goes for Nespresso pods. 30 pods ship economically to Switzerland, but not to other countries so we offer 60 pods instead. Save

    Does SOkopi sell K-cups?

    Not yet. We sell Nespresso compatible pods. If you want SOkopi K-cups, let us know at hello@sokopi.com and we will notify you when we are ready to ship K-cups. 

    Does SOkopi sell green beans?

    SOkopi was created to help Indonesians realise more benefit from the coffee they produce. We grow and process our own coffee, and our unique business model is focused on selling our amazing roast coffee direct to end consumers.
