Sumatra Lintong Tano Batak

This stuff was weird to roast. For starters, the beans were large and a darker shade of green. The roast time seemed to be fairly long and I roasted into the start of 2nd crack shooting for FC+. Although I still have some chaff in the cracks, the beans are nearly black, very expanded and some have some chunks missing from them, as if it's closer to a French. Anyone have any experience with Sumatra? Is it normal for the beans to have a darker shade?
