In Indonesia, coffee is not usually labeled as "Indonesia", but is preceded by the name of the island that produces it.

The history of coffee cultivation in Sumatra began in the 18th century and was first introduced to the northern part of Sumatra, which has Lake dopa, Sumatra's largest freshwater lake, which is still the main producer of Sumatran coffee. Since coffee produced in Sumatra does not vary greatly in taste due to different producing areas, and even coffee from different producing areas, their harvest and processing processes are very similar, therefore, Sumatra is not named as a variety of coffee according to the producing area. In fact, most of the coffee beans produced in Sumatra are sold under the product name Mantenin, which has its own ethnic origin.

It is said that during World War II, when the Japanese occupied Indonesia, some Japanese soldiers went to a cafe run by the Mantenin to drink coffee. They thought the coffee provided by the owner was very good, so they asked the owner about the name of the coffee, and the owner mistakenly thought they were asking who they were, so they answered that they were from Mantenin. So the Japanese soldiers thought this kind of coffee was called Mantenin. After that, one of the Japanese soldiers thought that the coffee they drank in Indonesia was of great commercial value, and he wanted to introduce it to the Japanese market, so he contacted an Indonesian businessman. buy "Manning" coffee from him. Instead of rejecting the deal because there was no coffee called Mantenin, the shrewd businessman shipped 15 tons of coffee from Sumatra to Japan. Before that, the high-quality and delicious Indonesian coffee had never been exported to any country, and since then, the name "Manning" has spread all over the world.
