What is the difference between Indonesian Sumatra Mantinin coffee and gold Mantinin? How to distinguish between real and fake golden Mantelin coffee?

Speaking of Indonesian coffee, I believe that many friends think of Mantonin immediately. Various Mantonin such as Lindong Mantonin, Tiger Mantonin, Aged Mantonin and other Mantonin emerge one after another. Among them, the most well-known one is the Golden Mantelin, which can be said to be synonymous with high-end Mantelin. So what kind of Manternin can be called a golden Manternin?

To know the answer to this question, we first need to know what Mantelin is.

What is Mantelin? As Qianjie has always shared, Mantelin coffee is very special because its name is not like other coffees. Mantelin is neither a variety name nor a place of origin, but a general term, referring to all coffee produced in Sumatra. I believe everyone is familiar with the story of Mantanin on Qianjie, so Qianjie will briefly summarize it here: During World War II, a Japanese soldier drank a cup of coffee with an unusual aroma on Sumatra Island, Indonesia. He liked it very much, so he asked the owner the name of the coffee. But because of the language barrier, the shop owner mistakenly thought he was asking about his ethnicity and then answered "Mandainin." (Mandainin is a people on Sumatra that grows coffee for a living.) Japanese soldiers mistakenly thought the name of coffee was "Mandainin."

After the war ended, Japanese soldiers were obsessed with the coffee they drank on the island, so they entrusted Indonesian coffee maker Pawani Coffee company (PWN) to purchase 15 tons of mantonin locally and sell it back to Japan. However, because Puwani Company did not find a coffee called Mantening in Sumatra, it directly packed the local Arabica coffee as "Mantening." As a result, because of its unique flavor and unique stuffy aroma,"Mantonin Coffee" was well received, so "Mantonin" gradually became the general name for all coffees grown on Sumatra Island as a commercial name. This is the most well-known fortune story about Mantelin Coffee.

If a friend sees this place, he may ask, since all the coffee grown on Sumatra Island is called Mantonin, what kind of role is the golden Mantonin?

What is Golden Mantelin? The word "gold" does not mean that this Manternin has a similar golden appearance, but because this Manternin has a quality as precious as gold due to extremely strict screening standards. We all know that coffee beans are agricultural products. Agricultural products do not ensure uniform quality like industrial products. Therefore, relevant grading systems are needed to classify the quality of coffee beans and facilitate sales. The highest level of regular Manternin is G1. To reach this level, Manternin needs to meet three conditions: ①. The size must exceed 18 meshes;② There must be no more than 3 defective beans among the 300 green coffee beans;③. After 3 manual selection.

Mantelins who can reach this level are already in the minority, but the requirements of gold Mantelins will be higher than this requirement. Its defect rate requirement is the same as the former, but the size of the coffee beans needs to reach 19 meshes. Then in addition to 3 manual selections, the coffee beans that meet the requirements will also undergo one machine selection. The density and color value of the beans is tested through a machine, and the defective beans that are difficult to judge with the naked eye are screened out. Finally, a batch of Mantelin with the same size and color and better quality can be obtained. This standard was set by the company that first introduced "Mantonin Coffee" to Japan, namely the Purwani Company mentioned in the Front Street Story above. Because with the fire of Mantening coffee, various bean merchants began to sell their Sumatra coffee under the name Mantening. This made Mr. Du, the person in charge of Poveni Company, want to launch a product that is different from the Mantinin on the market, so that it can have more advantages. Therefore, Poveni Company began to establish its own higher coffee bean standards to emphasize that its products are better.

The Golden Mantelin is one of the products born under this idea. As Mr. Du thought, the higher-quality Mantelin is sought after by the public because of its better flavor performance and cleaner taste, so he named it "Golden Mantelin" to emphasize the precious quality of this Mantelin like gold. However, other bean merchants watched the fire of Golden Mantinin and followed suit, so various "Golden Mantinin" appeared on the market. Some "golden mantinins" are characterized by golden appearance of beans; some "golden mantinins" have a mesh size of more than 20 meshes... Various standards emerge one after another. In order to rectify the frequent appearance of "Golden Mantelin" on the market, PWN Company directly registered "Golden Mantelin" as an exclusive trademark, which can reduce bean merchants 'touching behavior. So to sum up, we can know that only the gold Mantelin produced by PWN Company is the real gold Mantelin.

But even so, there are still many fake gold Mantelins on the market, which has allowed PWN to launch a second "anti-counterfeiting certification." Merchants who purchase PWN Gold Manternin raw beans will receive a certification certificate provided by PWN to prove the source of their gold Manternin.

Then the three-letter abbreviation of PWN will be printed on the raw bean sack of Golden Manternin. When you buy gold mantinin, you can check the authenticity or source of gold mantinin by asking the merchant to present these two items. Of course, both East and West Front Street coffees are available. The store has gold Manterin raw bean sacks with PWN, as well as a pile of certificates. Therefore, if you want to buy authentic gold Manterin, Front Street Coffee will be a good choice.

In addition to the gold Manterin, Qianjie Bean List also sells food rations Manterin that highlight the regional flavor. Both of them are the highest level, and then both are wet planed, which can be used for comparison. In order to prevent coffee from being influenced by too many human factors, Qianjie here uses cup testing to taste it! The test performance of the ration Manternin in is very excellent. It tastes mellow and has a rich aroma. We can obviously taste the baking aromas of pine, chocolate, toast, etc., as well as the unique thick and stuffy aroma of Manternin; while the gold Manternin has a cleaner taste, and the flavor is also mainly baked aromas such as chocolate, nuts, caramel, etc., without too many miscellaneous flavors such as herbs. The taste is mellow and silky, and the aftertaste is long and lasting. It is very good.

The two Mantonins each have their own advantages. The front street rations Lin Dong Mantonins clearly show the unique flavor of Indonesia's producing areas, while the gold Mantonins have a cleaner performance based on the original. Very good. Today's event coincides with today's event. Interested friends can go to shopping websites and search Qianjie to find out for themselves ~
