Indonesia Specialty Coffee is exhibiting at SCAJ 2026, the World Specialty Coffee Conference and Exhibition. We are bringing green coffee straight from our partner farms in Aceh, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Bali and Java — cup it at the booth, take samples home to your own lab, and talk wholesale export terms face to face.
Booked meetings get priority. Walk-ins are welcome.
Where and when
SCAJ is organised by the Specialty Coffee Association of Japan and is the largest specialty coffee trade event in Asia. The 2025 edition drew 96,823 visitors from 81 countries and 500 exhibiting companies from 35 countries. The organiser expects around 95,000 visitors and 750 booth units across 20,000 m² in 2026.

Every lot ships Grade 1, graded under SNI 01-2907-2008 (defect value 11 or lower, moisture 12.5% or lower), and every Arabica cups at 82–88 SCA points on SCA protocol.

Five Gayo lots, one terroir, different processing. Bringing the Natural Classic, Carbonic Maceration, Wine, Long Berry and Wet-Hulled Gayo side by side lets you cup the same Aceh terroir through different processing on one table. That comparison is hard to arrange from a pricelist, and it is the main reason we chose them for Tokyo. Want a specific lot reserved for your cupping? Tell us in the appointment form and we will have it on the table when you arrive.
Cupping at a trade show tells you whether a coffee is interesting. Roasting it on your own machine tells you whether it fits your programme. We are set up for both at Booth 1106.
Every lot is on the table throughout the three days. Come with a shortlist or work through the whole flight — including the Gayo lots side by side, same terroir, different processing.
We hold green samples for you to carry back to your cupping lab. Book ahead and we will set aside the specific lots you want. Larger 1 kg evaluation samples can be ordered after the show.
A trade show cup is a starting point, not a purchase decision. Roast the sample, cup it against your current Indonesian offerings, then come back to us on volume and terms.
One practical tip from our side. Wet-hulled lots such as the Gayo Wet-Hulled and Lintong carry a slightly different moisture and density profile from the dry-hulled lots. If you are roasting them for the first time, profile them separately rather than reusing your washed Central American curve.
Booth traffic at SCAJ is heavy, and 15 minutes of unhurried time with the person who grades your coffee is worth more than a quick chat in a queue. Booking a slot means we prepare your cupping flight and pricing in advance.
Indonesia Specialty Coffee is a direct exporter of Grade 1 Indonesian green coffee, based in Medan and shipping FOB Belawan to roasters, importers and distributors worldwide. SCAJ 2026 is our chance to put 14 lots in front of you in one place, and your chance to cup, question and negotiate with the people who source them.

See you at Booth 1106. Let's connect and brew the future together.
