Grown in Mandheling:

The Mandheling region of Sumatra is renowned for its unique growing conditions. Nestled in the volcanic highlands, this area offers the perfect climate for cultivating coffee. The rich, fertile soil, combined with the region’s humid weather, creates beans with deep, earthy flavors that are further enhanced during the dark roasting process.

Mandheling coffee is often processed using the wet-hulling method, which imparts a distinctive body and earthy richness. This unique preparation is integral to the bold, full-bodied profile of Sumatra Mandheling Dark Roast, allowing the coffee to retain its complexity even at darker roast levels.
