Golden Sumatra Mandheling Single Origin Coffee

Roast Style: 5 (out of 6)

In the enchanting world of coffee, let me introduce you to the mystical Golden Sumatra, a bean that's a true treasure trove of flavors. It's a French roasted Sumatra Mandheling, a brew that's as earthy as the forest floor and as thick as molasses.

With every sip, you'll be treated to the velvety essence of chocolate, like a sweet secret that reveals itself in the finish. But what makes this coffee truly magical is the Sumatran process, a unique journey that begins with hulling the parchment off the beans when they still hold a whopping 50% moisture content, a stark contrast to the usual 10-12% moisture in other processes.

This distinctive method gives birth to a trademark flavor profile, one that's low in acidity and rich enough to linger on the back of your palate like a fond memory. The name "Mandheling" itself is a nod to the Mandailing people, who are the masterminds behind this coffee from the Tapanuli region of Sumatra. So, when you sip the Golden Sumatra, you're taking a journey to the lush, misty forests of Northern Sumatra and Aceh, a land where coffee is not just a drink but a magical experience in itself.
