Introduction to Lindong Coffee producing area in Sumatra

The word Indonesia comes from the Greek Indus and nesos, which refers to the islands of India.

The Republic of Indonesia (Indonesian: Republik Indonesia), referred to as Indonesia or Indonesia, is one of the Southeast Asian countries; composed of tens of thousands of islands, it is the largest archipelago country in the world, with a territory across Asia and Oceania, also known as the country of thousands of islands, the country of thousands of islands, the island country in the water, the equatorial emerald, the country of volcanoes and other nicknames.

Sumatra is the sixth largest island in the world, facing the Malay Peninsula across the Strait of Malacca to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the west, the South China Sea and Java to the east and Java to the southeast.

Sumatra is a green island with all kinds of tropical plants covering the whole territory and full of vitality. The overlapping mountains are flooded by primeval forests, and the river as flat as a mirror is surrounded by tall coconut trees, whether cities, villages, fields and roads are soaked in the green sea. The green sea and blue sky constitute a harmonious and beautiful picture, which has become the everlasting and beautiful landscape of Sumatra, leaving a deep impression on us in the 17th century. The Dutch first introduced Arabica saplings to Ceylon (present-day Sri Lanka) and Indonesia.

In 1877, a large-scale disaster hit the Indonesian islands, coffee rust destroyed almost all the coffee trees, people had to give up Arabica, which had been in operation for many years, and introduced the disease-resistant Robusta coffee tree from Africa.

Sumatra Manning is a rare Arabica species. Planted on hillsides between 750m and 1500 m above sea level, the mysterious and unique Sumatran species give Mantenin coffee a rich aroma, rich taste, strong flavor, slightly chocolate and syrup flavor.

During the Japanese occupation of Indonesia during World War II, a Japanese soldier drank mellow coffee in a cafe, so he asked the shopkeeper the name of the coffee, and the boss mistook him for asking where you were from, so he replied: Mandaining. After the war, the Japanese soldiers recalled the "manning" they had drunk in Indonesia. As a result, 15 tons of Indonesian coffee was transported to Japan, which was very popular. The name of Mantenin came out in this way, and the coffee merchant is now the famous Pwanni Coffee Company.
