The Countdown Begins: World Barista Championship 2025 in Jakarta
The World Barista Championship (WBC) 2025 is just around the corner, and this year, the global coffee community is coming to Jakarta, Indonesia ! As one of the most prestigious events in the coffee industry, the WBC brings together baristas, roasters, and coffee enthusiasts from around the world to celebrate excellence in coffee craftsmanship.
For Kerta Koffie , this is more than just an event—it’s an opportunity to showcase Indonesia’s rich coffee heritage and position ourselves as a leader in specialty coffee. In this article, we’ll share behind-the-scenes insights into how we’re preparing for WBC 2025 and how you can be part of this unforgettable experience.
Why WBC 2025 Matters for Indonesian Coffee
Indonesia is home to some of the world’s most unique and flavorful coffee beans, from Aceh Gayo to Puntang Haruman and Wild Luwak . Hosting the WBC 2025 in Jakarta is a chance to put Indonesian coffee on the map and highlight its diversity, quality, and sustainability.
At Kerta Koffie , we believe this event will not only elevate Indonesia’s reputation as a coffee origin but also inspire local farmers, baristas, and businesses to innovate and grow. Here’s how we’re contributing to the excitement:
Behind the Scenes: Kerta Koffie’s Preparation for WBC 2025
Sourcing Rare Microlot Beans for the Championship
One of our key contributions to WBC 2025 is providing rare microlot beans that represent the best of Indonesian coffee. For example:
- Puntang Haruman : A natural anaerobic microlot with fruity, wine-like notes—perfect for pour-over enthusiasts.
- Bodjongwaroe : A honey-processed bean with floral and citrus undertones, ideal for espresso-based drinks.
We’ve been working closely with Rainforest Alliance-certified farmers to ensure these beans meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability.
Training Local Baristas for the Big Stage
Behind every great cup of coffee is a skilled barista. To support the championship, we’re hosting barista training sessions at our shop in Karawang. These workshops focus on:
- Mastering brewing techniques like V60, Syphon, and Tubruk.
- Perfecting latte art and presentation skills.
- Understanding the nuances of Indonesian coffee flavors.
Our goal is to empower local talent and help them shine on the global stage.
