Introduction to Qianjie-Sumatra aged Manning Coffee

Indonesia is the largest archipelago country in the world. Arabica coffee was introduced and planted during the Dutch colonial period in the 18th century, until it became the top five coffee producing country in the world in modern times. the main producing areas are located in Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi. The northern part of Sumatra is relatively high above sea level. Aceh, where Lake Tawar is located, and North Sumatra, where Lake Toba is located, are two major Arabica coffee producing areas.

Lake Tawa is located in the Gayo mountains north of Aceh province in Sumatra. Indonesia, which spans both sides of the equator, has a humid rainforest climate with abundant rainfall and rich volcanic soil that brings rich nutrients to coffee. However, due to the remote and inconvenient transportation, coffee was not planted until 1924, mostly with traditional shade and pesticide-free organic cultivation.

The local climate is humid, and the shelled beans are initially washed and fermented, and after one or two days of exposure, the moisture content of raw beans is still 30%-50%, that is, peeling off the seed shell before continuing drying, so as to shorten the drying schedule of raw beans; about 2 days of drying time, the moisture content of raw coffee beans can be reduced to 120.13%. This unique semi-washing method in Indonesia is called Giling Basah by locals, also known as wet stripping (wet-hulled).

The Sumatran Arabica coffee, commonly known as Mantenin, comes from the local ancient aboriginal people. it is rumored that the Japanese occupied Sumatra in the 1940s, and a soldier was surprised by the coffee he drank in North Sumatra. and ask the locals what kind of coffee it is. However, due to the lack of language, the other party misunderstood him as asking him who he was, and replied that he belonged to the Mandaining tribe. Later, it became Mantenin because of the wrong sound, and became synonymous with Sumatran coffee under the difference between yin and yang.

The so-called aged beans are selected coffee beans of good quality after more than 3 to 5 years of storage, stored in a well-ventilated warehouse or with special temperature and humidity control, and regularly turn the pile and turn the cloth bag. View. So that the degree of dryness of the coffee beans can be consistent, with the passage of time, the acidity of the coffee will gradually disappear, and the flavor is as charming as Pu'er tea.

Flavor description: oolong, pur, Lentinus edodes, spices, bright tea, low acidity, full dark chocolate, thick taste

Knowledge: Mantenin coffee beans have larger particles and harder texture, and are prone to defects in the process of planting, so they are usually subject to strict manual selection after harvest.
