Kelompok Tani Hutang Margo Kopi Harmoni (Subkhi)

"For Muchamad Imam Chundhori, specialty coffee is fundamentally a vehicle for social transformation and economic stability. Operating at 1,500 to 1,800 masl on Mount Sindoro, he leads the Margo Kopi Harmoni forest group under the KOJOYO Cooperative, converting former forest land into a thriving, community-managed specialty coffee sanctuary. Before harvesting his first lot, Imam spent a full year organizing community workdays to build accessible mountain paths, ensuring cherries could be transported down the steep slopes without damage. Situated on Sindoro's eastern slopes, the 32-hectare agroforestry site receives full morning sunlight that promotes steady fruit maturation under a protective canopy of native pine, suren, and puspa trees.
For Cup of Excellence 2026, Imam prepared a lot led by the S795 variety, applying an Experimental Natural Carbonic Maceration process. Inside a specialized fermentation room equipped with climate and temperature controls, he maintains disciplined records at every stage to achieve consistent cleanliness and sweetness.
The structured execution paid off, advancing his entry to Cup of Excellence. For Imam, this milestone is a tool to uplift his entire community. His primary objective is to invest in technical workshops and agricultural education, elevating farming knowledge and building long-term prosperity across Bansari."

“Specialty coffee must transform both the land and the community. When we invest in our soil and our people, we build lasting value for everyone.”
