Tea cultivation in Indonesia

Often unnoticed, it reaches teacups all over the world

While the country ranks an impressive 7th or 8th among the largest tea producers in global statistics, its contribution is often a quiet hero in the background. Indonesian tea lies at the heart of many beloved blends. With its robust, almost mineral character, it lends famous varieties such as the robust East Frisian Blend or the traditional English Breakfast Tea the unmistakable depth and richness that make them so indispensable. The exotic, volcanic aroma of Indonesia travels across oceans to enhance everyday life in the teapots of Europe—an invisible but irreplaceable piece of enjoyment.

The many faces of tea

A botanical treasure

Indonesia's tea culture is more than just strong black tea. The variety ranges from robust black tea to delicate green and oolong varieties, each reflecting Indonesia's rich history in its own way. Rare and exotic varieties such as delicate white tea or the floral-scented jasmine tea expand the range and demonstrate the broad spectrum of craftsmanship. The tea leaves are harvested primarily during the dry season from July to October. Processing is traditionally carried out using the orthodox method , which preserves the full leaves and thus captures the robust, earthy, and spicy flavor.




Tea culture

Every cup of tea tells its own story

It reflects the country's rich regional diversity. On the island of Java, tea is often served in small clay pots and is known for its fresh, floral flavor, while people in the Moluccas like to flavor their tea with local spices like cloves and cinnamon. In the bustling streets of Medan on Sumatra, the preferred beverage is a strong, steeped milk tea, reminiscent of Indian chai. Whether as part of a contemplative ritual or as an expression of hospitality, tea is a vibrant part of everyday Indian life.
