Cultivated from plantations started by the Portuguese, East Timorese coffee is a wonderful thing: rich, nutty, smooth. Starbucks apparently thinks so, too, because it is one of the top purchasers of Timorese coffee. Yet a search of Starbucks' U.S. website, which lists the provenance of all its bean blends, comes up with no results for coffee from East Timor. There are, however, plenty of mentions of Indonesian...
