Origin from the Volcanic Highlands of Sumatra

Giling Basah, the traditional Sumatran method of processing coffee, involves hulling the parchment off the bean at roughly 50 percent moisture content, versus at the 10 to 12 percent moisture that’s common elsewhere.

Indonesia is an archipelago of more than 17,000 islands, and Sumatra is the second largest of these. The islands were formed by volcanic activity, and their mineral-rich soil—fortified with volcanic ash and diverse plant life—have helped to make Indonesia’s coffees among the most famous and celebrated around the world.

Indonesia Sumatra Mandheling is grown on the slopes of Mount Leuser, a volcano near the port of Padang, in the Batak area of Aceh. The Leuser Range is said to be home to one of the most ancient and bio-rich ecosystems on the planet. Mandheling coffees are named in honor of the Mandailing people, an ethnic group in the Batak area who goes by this second spelling.

Triple Pick (TP) for Exceptional Quality

TP stands for Triple Pick, referring to the process where coffee cherries are hand-sorted three times to remove defects.

This extra level of quality control ensures the following:

• Superior bean consistency
• Selection of only perfectly ripe cherries
• Cleaner and sweeter flavors
• Better cup quality

Through this meticulous process, every batch of Indonesian Mandheling coffee delivers reliable quality and excellent flavor.

Traditional Giling Basah Processing

One of the defining characteristics of sumatra mandheling coffee is the traditional Giling Basah, or wet-hulled, processing method.

Unlike conventional washed coffees that are hulled at 10–12% moisture content, Giling Basah removes the parchment while the beans still contain approximately 50% moisture.

This unique process contributes to:

• • Rich body and texture
  • Smooth mouthfeel
  • Low acidity
  • Complex sweetness
  • Distinctive herbal undertones

These characteristics have made Indonesian coffees famous among coffee lovers around the world.
