Doubt about the quality of Indonesian coffee once disturbed 32-year-old Mikael Jasin. The feeling was dispelled after he realized that local coffee beans could compete on par with the products of other countries. Now, Mikael is hitting his stride as an agent of change in the Indonesian coffee industry.
The name Mikael, or more commonly Miki, has frequently echoed in the Indonesian coffee industry. Regional, national and international titles have been won by this young barista over the last few years, including those of the Indonesia Barista Championship (IBC) and World Barista Championship (WBC).
