The Ministry of Law continues to collaborate with local governments\nand Geographical Indication Protection Communities (MPIG) to develop\nIndonesia\u2019s geographical indication products to be more optimal and\npossess higher economic value.<\/p>\n
Through the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI), the\nMinistry of Law has developed geographical indication products by\nestablishing Dieng as a pilot project for \u2018Geographical Indication (GI)\nTourism\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cGI Tourism is our collaborative effort to develop geographical\nindication products so that they can achieve more optimal economic\nvalue,\u201d said Arie Ardian Rishadi, Expert Staff for Politics and Security\nat the Ministry of Law, during a trial run of the Dieng Area GI Tourism\nroute in Central Java on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Geographical indication is a sign that indicates the origin of a\nproduct where its quality, reputation, and characteristics are\ninfluenced by geographical factors, nature, or local culture. In Dieng,\nthree products are already registered under geographical indications:\nDieng carica, Dieng Banjarnegara purwaceng, and Dieng Mountain Arabica\ncoffee.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want these geographical indication products to have higher\nmultiple economic value,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Moving forward, several other signature Dieng products are set to be\nregistered as geographical indications, including the Batur sheep and\nthe \u2018Dieng Coffee Ritual\u2019.<\/p>\n
During the trial run of the DiArea GI Tourism route, the DJKI of the\nMinistry of Law inspected one of the new tourist destinations in Dieng,\nnamely the Dieng Coffee Ritual, which is developed by the Dieng MPIG\ngroup.<\/p>\n
The Dieng Coffee Ritual offers the sensation of enjoying Dieng\u2019s\ngeographical indication products in the form of processed coffee,\ncarica, and purwaceng. Uniquely, visitors can enjoy five different\ncoffee menus at the courtyard of Dwarawati Temple, Central Java.<\/p>\n
Starting with an opening coffee ritual named \u2018Awakening\u2019, the\nexperience continues by tracing the origin of Dieng mountain coffee\nflavours through manual brewing that showcases the authentic character\nof the volcanic soil, named \u2018The Origin\u2019.<\/p>\n
The third offering combines Dieng mountain coffee with purwaceng\nextract, a plant native to Dieng known for its health benefits, named\n\u2018The Spice\u2019.<\/p>\n
For the fourth offering, visitors are served \u2018The Sweet Ending\u2019, a\nsweet dessert inspired by the Dieng carica fruit. The snack, presented\nwith a soft texture, slight acidity, and natural sweetness, symbolises\nthe harmony of coffee, purwaceng, and the natural wealth of Dieng in one\nmemorable flavour journey.<\/p>\n
Finally, \u2018The Final Harmony\u2019 concludes the Dieng Coffee Ritual,\nfeaturing a drink made from coffee cascara from Dieng coffee fruit\nblended with jasmine flowers.<\/p>\n
At Dwarawati Temple, located in the Dieng Mountain area, visitors can\nenjoy various coffee blends and snacks while breathing in the fresh\nmountain air and admiring the captivating mountain scenery.<\/p>\n
\u201cFive quite interesting menus, all of which are delicious,\u201d said\nArie.<\/p>\n
He added that the raw materials for the Dieng coffee ritual menus all\nutilise coffee, carica, and purwaceng, which only grow and thrive in the\nDieng Mountains and nowhere else.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will continue to develop this into a unique feature which, when\ncombined with the tourism industry, can advance even further. The\npresentation is quite attractive. The Dieng Coffee Ritual will be\nlaunched as a brand to serve as an attraction for tourists visiting the\nDieng Mountains,\u201d said Arie.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/ministry-of-law-develops-high-value-geographical-indication-products-1790168542", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
