While this coffee is called Sumatra Mandheling, there is no region with this name - it is a reference to the Mandailing people of the island. The traditional method of processing coffee in Sumatra is known as Giling Basah, or semi-washed, and is a combination of the regular washed and natural processes. This technique reduces the acidity in the bean, makes a heavier body in the cup and creates earthy and tobacco-like flavours. These characteristics hold up and work well in one of our darker roasts.
Since coffee in Sumatra is rarely separated into different lots at origin, the growing altitude varies. We roasted this coffee at 452 degrees to bring out the rich, nutmeg and malted grain flavours.
Great tasting coffee, loved the offered discount , and the free delivery.

I haven’t had a Fire Roasted Coffee coffee that I didn’t enjoy, but there are some that have that extra edge - and that includes the Sumatra Mandheling!

Delicious, tastes like more!
I enjoy fireroasted's single origin coffees and from time to time I buy a 3 pack, but I've settled on the 2 pound Sumatra as my go to. Good intense coffee that works well in my espresso machine. I reorder this every 1 or 2 weeks.
