About this coffee :
Lintong, a Sumatran coffee often lesser known than Mandehling and Gayo, takes its name from its home district of Lintongnihuta. The area is southwest of Lake Toba (pictured) — one of the world’s deepest inland bodies of water — and rises to a high plateau, offering ideal conditions for Arabica cultivation.
High-quality Lintongs differentiate themselves from other Sumatran coffees with their clean mouthfeel and particularly bright acidity. Compared to Mandehlings, Lintongs tend to have a more medium body, while still retaining notes of dark chocolate and fresh earth.
The wet-hulled process commences with a standard pulping step to remove the cherry skin, followed by the beans' placement in fermentation tanks, where a significant portion of the mucilage layer remains intact on the parchment. Overnight, the beans undergo a dry fermentation within their pulp.
Subsequently, they undergo a washing process. Following this, the parchment is dried briefly until it reaches a 25 to 30% moisture level. Producers have the option to sell their coffee as wet parchment or partially dried parchment to buying centres, which then hull the coffee at the elevated moisture level, facilitating a faster drying process.
The term "triple picked" describes the meticulous preparation of green beans, indicating that the coffee has undergone three rounds of sorting and cleaning before being packaged and shipped.
This coffee from Catur Coffee Company is the cleanest Lintong you can find. The lovely dark chocolate fudgy note on the front pairs with mandarin orange juiciness, a full-bodied mouthfeel & finishes with hints of walnut on the aftertaste. A wonderful coffee to have as the first coffee of the day to get the day started!
