If you're hungry for somewhere to have a good cup of coffee, look no further. Anomali prides itself on having the best local coffee from around Indonesia, with their fresh beans from Bali, Java, Toraja, Flores, Papua, Aceh and Mandailing. We took a trip in their last Kemang branch to find some coffee truths and lies ...

Anomali believe they are special because they are 100% Asli Indonesia (behind Indonesia) and green beans that are picked up by local farmers for Anomali are checked first before being sorted manually, manually being the key word. Once the beans arrive on the scene, they are freshly roasted in a giant machine modern looking welcomes you to this café entrance. Every morning at about 7:30, you can attend this event, followed by rapid cooling, degassing and packaging in an airtight bag to ensure freshness. Customers can then buy these magic beans and request that it be grounded or left as they are. A bonus for clients Anomali is a free black coffee with each bag o 'beans purchased.

As I read their coffee menu chalked on the blackboard, I discover their unique origins Aceh Gayo Organic, medium acidity with rich earthy shades, Sumatera Mandailing classic earthy with whole body, Java Estate, nutty and chocolatey and medium body, Bali Kintamani, light and fruity, Toraja Kalosi, caramel and sweet, Flores Bajawa, medium body, low acidity and a hint of cirtus and Papua Wamena, fruity, clean flavor with great body.

"Omocino" caught my attention. A sweet blend of orange, mocha and coffee and comes in the form of a cappucinno, frothy and with a heart on top. If you like your coffee sweet, this is a must with their latte creme brulee. Cappuccino Anomali is very strong and their Espresso comes without the bitter taste that I love. The interior concept for Anomali is similar to that of a cafe in the overseas fashion, minimalist, rustic; Exposed red brick, black ceilings with air-conditioning vents painted black with lots of wooden furniture. It does not feel generic and is a breath of fresh air.

The issue of "Kopi Luwak" rose as we sipped our coffee. How is it possible that so many places claim to have real civet coffee suddenly? "It is not," was the response of Pak Abdul Azis, deputy director of operations. However, he could 100% guarantee that the luwak of Anomali are wild and free range happy, the way they should be. A cup of that special coffee will cost Rp.100,000.

Talking to their coffee baristas, it was clear that these people truly love their beans. Did you know that the temperature at which beans are roasted bean depends on the specific type? If you want to know more on coffee, Anomali offers Barista training, which in this context does not refer to a bartender, but the man who makes the coffee whose passion leads her devotion. To truly understand the coffee, from its origins to its profile and roasting features, storage and brewing techniques, you can go on a six-day Anomali Kemang and out the king of coffee or Queen.
