Introduction:

Indonesian coffee is very diverse in quality, most of which are based on the island origin as its market name: such as Sumatra, Sulawesi, Jawa or Timur. The advantage of Indonesian coffee is that most coffee is characterized by strong, introverted flavor and lively moderate acidity. Chinese people have a good opinion of Indonesian Mandheling coffee, and it is one of the coffee products with the highest acceptance. Indonesia Mandheling was once praised as the best unique wet peeling coffee bean in the world. Mantenin is a trademark merchandise. Nowadays, as long as the red cherry fruit of coffee harvested in Indonesia is processed by this unique wet peeling method, it will be sold as Mantenin coffee beans. Mandailing grew coffee from the Tapanuli region of northwestern Sumatra, because at the end of World War II, a Japanese soldier introduced the Japanese market and changed the wrong Mandailing into Mandheling coffee because of mispronunciation.

Sumatra (Sumatra):

Sumatran coffee is very complex and elusive. The best coffee in Sumatra comes from two places: the province of Acheh, north of Sumatra, near Lake Tawar and the province of Lindong in the south (Lintong), surrounded by mountains near Lake Toba Lake. Due to many sharecropper producers and the use of their unique semi-washing treatment and lack of iron in the soil, coffee beans in this area have a special blue color at the stage of fresh beans.

This batch of Mantenin, the star of Tavar in Sumatra, is located in Aceh province and Gayo region in the north of Sumatra. Most of the residents here are coffee growers. Due to the natural environment, located at high altitude and rainy, it is very suitable for growing coffee. Coffee is grown on the slopes around the town of Takegon and Lake Tawar. The average planting height in the production area is between 1100 and 1300 meters. Coffee is planted by shade farmers under shade trees, showing a peculiar flavor, low depth and lively and full-bodied flavor. Aceh is a fascinating and complex place in the northernmost corner of Sumatra. Aceh is not an area that ordinary people want to visit because of long-term political instability. In recent years, local security and tourism safety have been improved as a result of an agreement between locals and the Jakarta government.

Gayo people are hardworking people with a firm personality, and nearly 20% of coffee processors are women. Under this semi-wet and semi-dry peeling and wet washing method, the coffee farm machine removes the peel and pulp of the red cherry fruit. There is still a lot of mucus on the coffee beans, and then it is stored in a fermentation tank for about a day (24 hours). When the fermentation is complete, the attached mucus can be easily washed away with water. Then when the sun-drying reaches about 30% to 35% water content, the coffee bean shell is removed and it can be sold on the market. When the shell of the coffee bean is removed in this semi-wet and semi-dry state, the bean itself reveals a unique dark blue, which reduces the acidity and increases the alcohol thickness (body) of the coffee.
