Introduction to the geographical environment of Indonesian Sumatra coffee that you don't know.

Manning Coffee, a coffee variety that can almost be synonymous with coffee, has often heard its name since childhood. It represents a mellow, bitter and strong flavor. It is also the favorite of many people, because it can always make people feel the strength of espresso completely, make men feel more like men, and women are stimulated by its fragrance to exude their own confidence and charm. Manning itself is an unexpected mistake, you do not know Manning, there are many interesting stories going on all the time.

Mandheling is not a place name, nor is it a producing area, nor is it the name of a port, let alone a variety of coffee. In fact, it is the name of Mandailing, an ethnic group in Sumatra, Indonesia.

During World War II, when the Japanese occupied Sumatra, Indonesia, a Japanese soldier drank mellow coffee in a cafe and asked the boss curiously, "what kind of coffee is this?" the boss mistakenly thought the Japanese soldier was asking him where he was from, so he replied, "Mandailing."

After the war, the Japanese soldier still remembered the mellow coffee that seemed to be called Mantening, so he asked a local coffee broker to help him send 15 tons of Mantening to Japan. Unexpectedly, it became very popular and created the Mantening trend from then on. The broker who helped him deliver the coffee later became Pwani Coffee Company, Indonesia's largest coffee company.

From the above, it can be seen that Manning Coffee is actually an Arabica coffee grown in Sumatra, Indonesia, especially in the Lindong Mountains near Lake Lake Toba in the north-central part and 900-1200 meters above sea level on the southwest coast.

Everyone's first impression of Manning is always fragrant, bitter, mellow, thick and even exciting, and it can't be tasted without sugar and milk.

In fact, Sumatra Lindong Manning can also bring a little sour taste, let you comfortable black coffee on the stomach!

Because the processing process of Mantenin coffee is very special, which is different from the water washing and sun drying methods commonly used in other producing areas, there are more defective beans and mixed beans, so it creates its unique fragrance of herbs and woods. therefore, heavy baking techniques are often used to bake beans.

Sumatran coffee has basically been mixed with the name Manning, and Sumatra's Mantenin system is becoming more and more complex, which can be roughly divided into four types:

The above-mentioned Lindong (or Lin Dong) Mantenin producing area near Lake Toba

After four times of manual screening, the golden mantenin is higher than the general mantenin, the sweet smell of caramel is stronger, the smell of herb and soil is almost invisible, and the fruit acid is very elegant.

Lake Tawa coffee, Sumatran coffee produced by semi-washing technology directed by Costa Rica's famous Raminita Manor.

Old Mantenin and Java Old Brown, who have been stored in specially designed warehouses for more than 2 to 3 years, can wear off the sour taste of coffee and turn it into sugar, which tastes as sweet as honey.

If you have a chance, you can try to drink these different mantenin coffee. I believe you will feel that the coffee world is so amazing that the mantenin you know is actually caused by misleading and misleading. Like the instant coffee below.

Basically, you may just grow coffee from poor Robasta (and it is very likely that it is actually from Java, not Sumatra), and the roast is heavier and deeper, making you feel more bitter, so it is called Manning flavor.
