Mandheling coffee is grown on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. It grows in Padang’s west-central region between 2,500 and 5,000 feet above sea level. It is known for its smooth, full body (mouthfeel) as its rich, complex taste
The flavour of the coffee develops well because of the rich volcanic soil and tropical climate. The coffee is named after north Sumatra’s Mandailing people – an ethnic group and not so much a region
Tasting Notes: Smooth, full body (mouthfeel) rich, complex taste. Earthy and intense, herbal aroma with just enough acidity to provide a vibrancy. Mandheling coffee often exhibits tones of sweet chocolate and licorice.
Though Mandheling coffees are dry processed, the method includes washing the dried husk of the coffee cherry (fruit) in hot water which provides a more uniform appearance of the coffee beans than typical dry processed green coffee beans, and likely contributes to the coffee’s fine flavor
At Home Blend, we roast a Grade 1, triple picked – Mandheling which refers to the beans being hand-picked thrice for defects. This extra quality control measure results in a very consistent cup that includes only cherries at optimum ripeness
