The Sumatra Lintong Mutu Batak comes from selected producers surrounding the town of Lintongnihuta in the Provinsi Sumatera Utara (Northern Sumatra Province). This specific area is located on the southern shores of Lake Toba, which is the largest volcanic lake in the world. The soil around the southern part of the lake is volcanic which leads to exceptional terrain for growing coffee. The town of Lintong Nihuta sites on a plateau that ranges from 1000 meters with a few farms around 1300 meters.
The producers of this coffee are small farmers who have been recognized to produce exceptional raw material. These selected farmers run small two to four hectare plantations with each hectare consists of approximately 1,000 coffee trees. The farmer grows, harvests, and depulps the coffee on the farm. After depulping he stores the coffee overnight, allowing it to ferment and washes the following day. After washing the farmer will briefly dry the coffee to remove the moisture from the exterior of the parchment and delivers the coffee to our production facility.
