Sumatra Mandheling (Giling Basah Grade 1)
The Heavyweight: Sumatra Mandheling (Grade 1 Triple-Picked)
The Process: Our Mandheling is crafted using the traditional Giling Basah (Wet-Hulling) method, a unique Indonesian technique born from the misty rainforests of North Sumatra. This labor-intensive process is what gives the bean its signature deep aquamarine color and incomparable body.
