Qianjie-brief introduction of Indonesian Coffee Brand Gold Manning

The main producing areas of Indonesian coffee are Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi, of which "Manning" from Sumatra is the most famous.

Mantenin is also known as "Sumatran Coffee". Gayo is mostly produced in North Sumatra. Lake Tawa, which is dominated by ateng varieties, can be called Aceh Coffee or Lake Tawa (Tawar lake) Coffee, and the area between Lintong and Lake Toba lake in South Sumatra can be called Mantenin. Lindong is the producing area of Mantenin, and the best mantenin varieties have four varieties: Sidikalang, Bergendar, Siborong borong and Telok Sanggul.

Lake dopa, located in the central part of North Sumatra, was moved northward to the Lake dopa area by Dutch colonists in 1888, creating the modern Mantenin legend.

Lake Tawa is located in the middle of the Aceh Special Administrative region. Located at the northern tip of Sumatra, the area is less than 1/10 of Lake dopa. However, the quality and output of coffee have surpassed that of Lake dopa in recent years.

Gold manning is a product produced by the company PWN. After the acquisition of raw beans, multiple manual selections are made to select the full and flawless beans, and finally these beans can be divided into golden mantenins as if they had been selected by the draft. However, PWN registered the gold manning as a trademark, that is to say, only the gold manning produced by PWN can be regarded as the real "golden manning". Many of the beans on the market that are not made by PWN and hang the gold manning brand should actually be called boutique manning. Golden Manning is a famous coffee in Indonesia.

Sumatra is mainly divided into two main producing areas, the more southern producing areas are mainly around Medan, Lake dopa, and Lindong, which is the traditional producing area of "Mantenin". We often see the label Mantenin G1, Golden Manning, Tiger Manning and so on are all produced in this producing area. But basically, most of the coffee in this area gives the boutique coffee industry the impression of poor quality-poor cleanliness, straw, dirt, swill, and so on.

The second producing area of Sumatra, the once famous anti-China unrest and anti-government unrest, also took place here, that is, Mount Gayu and Aceh, which is located in northern Sumatra and mainly believes in Islam. The main species planted in this area are TIMOR species with half Robusta ancestry and catimor species with 1/4 Robusta (but basically do not use our common names in this area, we often see tim tim, bon bon, ateng, etc.), as well as other local endemic species. Most of the coffee in this area is treated by wet planing, which is available only in this part of the world. The coffee beans produced in this area are large and long, extremely uneven in appearance, dark green in color, and very special.

Knowledge expansion: Mantenin in Lindong area basically belongs to pure Arabica varieties, which is more like pure Arabica from bean shape observation, and the treatment method is basically based on the most traditional washing method.
