Toraja coffee is one of the best. Kayu manis coffee sounds interesting; I have never tried them before. What is your blend name? Jimbo Estate of Toraja Blend? :idea:
Next time when you munch durian, don’t smell it, just eat it. I promise you it will taste like Devon Custard: creamy and smooth. :o
With the very best ‘creamy and smooth’ wishes,

I was referring to the food aspects not the person. Mind you I had to laugh at adding chilli to British Gravy. I taught my wife to make many British dishes but always she added a special ingredient to spice things up. Mainly chilli. I will not comment on the Wolf Blass as I can bore the world talking about wine but sherry its not.
Arabic food is rather boring in the main although I do love Cardamom coffee. I have a small coffee farm myself in Torajah and I continually vary the taste by adding chocolate, Kayu Manis or indeed cadamom in small doses for a change.
I do not agree with you Roy on never changing what you are. 3 of my children were born in Indonesia but all of them regard themselves as British. They did not speak English when they arrived but things change over the years. Maybe its what you want to be rather than what you are. Or maybe its a factor of age and upbringing .
For me I am an internationalist as I have lived far the biggest proportion of my life outside of my birth country. Still there are aspects (maybe just in my mind) of the England I new as a boy that I miss. Like you I will no doubt die in Indonesia ( not necessarliy buried as my wife is Torajan) and will always remain English if not the quintissential stereotype.

My coffee is sold on the open market and not branded....maybe one day.
