Sumatra Mandheling Wet Hulled Italian Roast

A wet-hulled Sumatra from smallholder farms north of Lake Toba, roasted into the medium-dark territory where the processing method's signature earthiness takes the foreground. Herbaceous undertones and fresh fig give it an almost savory character, while the heavy body and low acidity create a grounded mouthfeel that works well in milk or as a straightforward black coffee. The wet-hull process—a practical necessity in Sumatra's humid climate—produces this coffee's distinctive earthy profile, quite different from the brighter washed coffees of other origins.
