Nanik Sulistyani

Nanik Sulistyani cultivates specialty coffee in Jernih Jaya Village, Gunung Tujuh, situated in the Kerinci Highlands of Jambi at 1450 masl. Farming in a fertile highland region regionally known as a fistful of heaven for its fertile volcanic soil and rich biodiversity surrounding Mount Kerinci. Cultivating coffee at an elevation of 1,450 masl, Nanik manages a farm planted with a blend of Sigararutang, S795, Komasti, and Andungsari. Navigating extreme weather shifts and temperature swings, she relies on natural shade trees within her agroforestry canopy to protect her coffee trees from heat stress and keep the microclimate stable. To prepare her lot for Cup of Excellence 2026, Nanik executed a Washed (Dry-Hulled) process. Facing a challenging harvest season, she selectively hand-picked ripe cherry was processed on the exact same day to preserve maximum sweetness, cleanliness, and cup clarity. Nanik’s vision is centered on gentle stewardship of her land and continuous quality improvements, proving that patience and disciplined daily work can showcase the true heavenly potential of Kerinci specialty coffee.

“Come for the 'kancung beruk' treats, stay for the farm walk and coffee cupping, and fall in love with Kerinci before you leave.”
