East Timor is a rugged terrain with the highest peak, Mount Lamarao (2,963 m), located in the middle of the plateau. Timor has the lowest income among the Indonesian archipelago, with coffee being the only source of income other than vegetables and fruit. In addition to the natural growing environment and the washing method introduced in 1994, it has become a country that can produce high-quality coffee. Although the coffee industry in East Timor accounts for less than 1% of the world market, the coffee is 100% organic and about 20% more expensive than coffee in other countries.
