Best of all, these coffee beans are volcanic soil-grown at an elevated level of 300 feet. They are certified as Rainforest Alliance, shade-grown, and Fair Trade.

While these coffee beans are somewhat costly, they are medium-roasted consistently and carry Mandheling’s earthly and distinctive herbal taste. It boasts low acidity, full-body, and distinctive notes of spice, brown sugar, and chocolate. We found Volcanica to be the best Sumatra Mandheling we sampled. We’d highly recommend trying Peach Coffee’s Sumatra Lintong, particularly if you are trying to understand the characteristic Sumatra flavor profile. This Lintong would be great as an everyday cup!

The balance of cedar and sage encompasses the earthy flavors Sumatra typically aims for, but weren’t overpowering. When Aeropressed, Peach Coffee’s Sumatra Lintong offered the best representation of Sumatra we tried. You’ll need relatively less volume per brew. When grinding this coffee, we found it to be quite dense after weighing. While the pineapple notes are more subtle, this coffee delivers a spicy, earthy aroma in spades- this is truly a cedar and sage forward coffee! The packaging of Peach Coffee’s Sumatra Lintong lists Pineapple, Cedar, and Sage as three characteristic notes. As our overall winner, we wanted to go a bit in-depth about our experience with it. Our overall winner was Peach Coffee Roasters Sumatra Lintong. For your information, if you click on a product on and decide to buy it, we may earn a small commission.
