Coffee culture in Indonesia, just like tea culture in China, has a long history and is extensive and profound.

For Indonesians, coffee is not only the black powder in the cup, but also a kind of culture and way of life.

Anto, 40, who works for a transportation company, drinks three cups of coffee a day. Anto said, thirsty and tired, want to drink coffee, do not drink coffee, do not turn your head.

The history of coffee drinking in Indonesia can be traced back to 1616, when it was sold to Indonesia by Dutch businessman AdmiralPieterVan from the Red Sea Arabs. Now it has taken root and sprouted in Indonesia. Now in the countryside, cities, Basha or large shopping malls, people can be seen drinking coffee and chatting everywhere. Coffee has become an indispensable part of Indonesian people's life.

Coffee in Indonesia is divided into four main categories by variety, namely, Arabica, Robusta, Liberi-ka and Ekselsa. Arabica was the first to enter the Indonesian market. Arabica coffee was first planted in Batavia in 1696. In 1699, an earthquake and flood in the city of Badavia killed a large area of Arabica coffee and had to be reintroduced and then spread to West Java, Bali and Sulawesi. In 1876, all Arabica coffee trees below 1000 meters above sea level died as a result of insect pests. After many improvements, Arabica coffee trees have been able to grow at an altitude of more than 500 meters. Robusta coffee tree was introduced into Indonesia in 1900. it has the characteristics of pest resistance, strong growth, simple maintenance, high yield and so on. Liberica coffee was introduced to Indonesia in 1875 because it was too bitter and sour, but it could not be promoted and gradually disappeared. The same bitter and sour Ike salad coffee has not made much progress.

Drinking coffee in moderation has many benefits. According to Manor Media (MediaPerkebunan) magazine No. 70 in 2009, studies by Harvard University and Italian experts have shown that coffee can effectively reduce the risk of diabetes, colon cancer, liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, etc., because it contains antioxidants, minerals and germicidal trigonelline.

According to the 107th issue of Manor Magazine in 2012, coffee cultivation in Indonesia in 2011 was 1.29 million hectares, of which Arabica accounted for 19.5% and Robusta accounted for 80.5%. In 2011, Indonesia's total coffee production was 630000 tons, of which Arabica accounted for 23.1% and Robista accounted for 76.9%. According to the Manor Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Indonesia exported 320000 tons of coffee in 2007, earning US $600 million in foreign exchange, second only to palm oil, bananas and cocoa in agricultural products.

With the development of society, people's requirements for coffee become more diversified, so the concept of "boutique coffee" comes into being. Boutique coffee is divided into eight categories according to its taste, aroma and origin, namely Mantenin Coffee from North Sumatra, Kopi Luwak Coffee from Nusa Tenggara, Balimu Coffee from Papua, Teraga Coffee from South Sumatra, Jindamani Coffee from Bali and Gaoyao Coffee from Aceh. Lingdong coffee, produced in North Sumatra. Kopi Luwak is famous at home and abroad because civets only eat the most delicious and mature coffee beans, that is, the reddest beans, rather than yellow and green ones, which are then excreted and processed into Kopi Luwak.

Manning Coffee is produced in Sumatra, Indonesia, Asia, also known as "Sumatran Coffee". Her flavor is very rich, fragrant, bitter, mellow, with a little sweetness. Most coffee lovers drink on their own, but it is also an indispensable variety for blending coffee.

At a time when Blue Mountain had not yet been made public, Manning coffee was considered to be the best product in the world. after baking, the beans were very large, raw beans were brown or dark green, caramel-like special flavor, mellow taste, sweet and bitter without soft acidity, but bitter taste. The production volume is relatively small, so the price is slightly higher than the general coffee beans.

Manning Coffee is produced in Sumatra, Indonesia, Asia, also known as "Sumatran Coffee". The main producing areas are Java, Sulawesi and Sumatra, 90% of which are Robusta species. Among them, the "Mantelin" produced in Sumatra is the most famous. The best of the exquisite traditional Arabica coffee produced in northern Sumatra of Sumatra is sold as Lindong Lintong and Manning Mandheling. To be exact, Lindong Lintong refers to coffee growing in a small area in the southwest of Lake Toba in Lindong District. The small coffee growing area is scattered on a high and wavy clay plateau full of fern covers. Lintong Lindong Coffee is grown without shade, does not use chemicals, and is almost entirely owned by small private owners. Mandheling Manning is a broader term that includes Lintong Lindong Coffee and similar conditions in the Diari [capital Sidikalang], the northern growing area of Lake Toba.

Manning Coffee-the Origin of the name

Manning is not the name of the producing area, the place name, the port name, nor the name of the coffee breed. How did it get its name?

In fact, it is a phonetic error of the mandheling people in Mandaining, Indonesia.

During the Japanese occupation of Indonesia during World War II, a Japanese soldier drank mellow coffee in a cafe, so he asked the shopkeeper the name of the coffee, and the boss mistook him for asking where you were from, so he replied: Mandaining. After the war, the Japanese soldiers recalled the "manning" they had drunk in Indonesia. As a result, 15 tons of Indonesian coffee was transported to Japan, which was very popular. That's how Manning's name came out, and the coffee merchant is now the famous PWN Coffee Company.

Known as Mantenin mandheling, it is produced all over Lake Toba in northern Sumatra. The finished product has a unique fragrance of herbs and trees.

Gold Mantenin, the Japanese adopted more stringent quality control more than a decade ago. After picking beans manually for four times, they eliminated defective beans and produced gold mantenin with dark green color and equal appearance of beans, creating another wave of market demand. Even Europe and the United States are crazy about it.

The aged Agedmandheling is as sweet as honey. The successful old bean has worn away Manning's inelegant sour taste. The sour ingredients are ripe and converted to sugar, making the coffee more round and sweeter to drink. Manning is like a coffee zombie in the old age of failure, and the taste is hard to taste.
