Sumatra Mandheling

Process: Wet Hulled We Taste: Cedar, Sweet Pine, Rainforest Adventure, Rich Caramel Finish Roast Level: Dark This coffee comes from the North Sumatra province in Indonesia, one of the largest coffee-producing regions by volume on the island. Coffee here is usually wet-hulled, a processing method unique to Indonesia due to unpredictable rains during the drying season. Once pulped, coffee is dried to a certain moisture level before hulling. After that, the coffee is dried the rest of the way before being prepared for export. Small, family-owned farms are the norm here, though larger estates do exist.
