Sumatra Coffee

Coffee from India & the Pacific

Sumatra is one of the great romance coffees of the world. It is not simply that the Indonesian island of Sumatra embodies a Conradian romance of the unfamiliar.

When it is at its best the coffee itself suggests intrigue, with its complexity, its weight without heaviness, and an acidity that resonates deep inside the heart of the coffee, enveloped in wonderful richness.

Sumatra Mandheling. This praise applies mainly to the finest of the traditional
arabica coffees of northern Sumatra, the
best of those sold under the market names Lintong and Mandheling.

Mandheling is a more comprehensive designation, referring both to Lintong coffees and to coffees grown under similar conditions in the regency of Diari, north of Lake Toba.

Distinguished by full body, deep, expansive flavor, and a low-toned, vibrant acidity.
