Mandheling is a shade-grown Sumatran kopi and is a classic, so steeped in the history of this Indonesian island that the name itself is not of a region, but rather the result of a language barrier. Sumatra Mandheling is grown on the slopes of Mount Leuser, a volcano near the port of Pandang, in the Batak area of Aceh. It is home to one of the most ancient ecosystems in the world!

The flavor profile is vibrant and spicy, a heavy coffee reminiscent of the atmosphere on this tropical paradise. If you’re looking for a Sumatran kopi that won’t let you down, this is a go-to.

Chocolate, cedar, sweet tobacco, and spice, along with a mild acidity and creamy body.
