ALMOST DARK ROAST

This shade-grown Sumatran coffee is a classic, so steeped in the history of this Indonesian island that the name itself is not of a region, but rather the result of a language barrier. Sumatra Mandheling is grown on the slopes of Mount Leuser, a volcano near the port of Pandang, in the Batak area of Aceh. It is home to one of the most ancient ecosystems in the world!

Coffee from Sumatra is differentiated by its unique wet-hulled processing method. The process uses water to remove the coffee cherry's red pulp and mucilage, while also removing the parchment layer in a "wet huller". By removing the parchment layer the bean dries faster, which is beneficial in Indonesia's wet climate. The wet-hulled process gives Sumatra its signature intense earthy flavors. The Grade 1 (G1) Triple-Picked (TP) designation in Indonesian coffee represents meticulous color-sorting to eliminate defective green coffee beans and ensures high quality standards.

Flavor
Rustic and sweet with deep chocolate overtones. Vibrant and spicy, with a syrupy, heavy body. This exemplifies the classic Sumatran coffee flavor.
