„The connection between drinking Sumatra coffee and helping Sumatrans has not escaped other members of the coffee community. Starbucks has announced that for every pound of whole-bean Sumatra or Sumatra Decaf sold in the month of January 2005 it will donate $2 or the equivalent in local currency to aid agencies benefiting victims of the December 2004 tsunami.

Fonte Coffee Roaster promises to do the same for Sumatras purchased on their website, and Tully's Coffee is sending 100% of proceeds from sale of its special World Vision Tsunami Support Blend to World Vision's relief efforts.“

The higher the price paid and the more recognition the small-holding farmers of the Sumatran highlands receive for their coffees, the quicker the entire region, including the tsunami-swept northern lowlands, can return to something resembling .“

It produces approximately 70% of the world's coffee, and is dramatically superior in cup quality to the other principal commercial coffee species, Coffea canephora or Robusta .All fine, specialty, and fancy coffees come from Coffea arabica trees. “

„Mocha-Java, Moka-Java, Mocca-Java. Traditionally, a blend of Yemen Mocha and Java Arabica coffees, usually one part Yemen Mocha and two parts Java Arabica. All commercial Mocha-Java blends and many specialty versions no longer follow this recipe. Commercial blends may combine any of a variety of round, full coffees in place of the Java, and any of a variety of bright, acidy coffees in place of the Mocha, while changing proportions to maintain a uniform taste.“
