Cup test report:

It is generally believed that as long as the coffee produced in Sumatra is commonly known as "Manning", it will be said that it comes from a well-known international coffee company, but in fact there are many coffee producing areas on Sumatra. Each producing area also produces different coffee flavor, and "Manning" refers to the name of a race that grows coffee.

Our protagonist today is from "Shamosi Island" on Lake dopa. Shamosi is a volcanic island in Indonesia, located in the middle of Lake dopa in northern Sumatra, the largest island in the world and the fifth largest lake island in the world. The water level of Lake dopa is about 900m, so coffee has been planted since about 1200 m, which is a great growing environment.

There is a unique global way to handle coffee in Indonesia, which is called "wet shelling". This special treatment can only be found in Indonesia. As the name implies, coffee beans are shelled before they are dried, and the wet beans continue to dry to 12% to 13% before they are exported.

Because of the wet relationship at the beginning, the "wet shelled" coffee is easy to produce a lot of defective beans, so the vast majority of 'Manning' coffee is used as commercial beans, but if handled well, which kind of delicacy is incredible. It is a very special "exotic flavor" that no other coffee can drink.

It is worth mentioning that only high-quality "wet-shelled" coffee produced in Sumatra has this flavor, so it is not just a technical problem of coffee processing, including soil, environment, climate and so on. All have an absolute influence.

Today's protagonist is the above-mentioned high-quality "wet shelled" coffee, an excellent representative, this exotic flavor is really not covered, it is really difficult for me to describe it, the whole batch is only 16 bags (30KG), the quantity is very rare, interested old gluttons should not miss it.
