Tiger Mandheling

Tiger Mandheling coffee is produced in Indonesia, the world's largest archipelagic nation, and is one of the classic representatives of Indonesian Mandheling coffee. It is renowned for its unique pine wood aroma and flavor. Alongside other Mandheling coffees, it represents the rich and distinctive herbal notes of the Indonesian coffee region.

Tiger Mandheling is grown in Indonesia, with its main production areas located on the islands of Sumatra, Java, and Sulawesi. The northern part of Sumatra has relatively higher altitudes, and the Aceh Province where Lake Tawar is located, as well as North Sumatra where Lake Toba sits, are key Arabica coffee-growing regions.

Tiger Mandheling is produced at Tiger Estate, hence it is also known as “Mandheling Tiger” or “Sumatran Tiger Mandheling.” There is also a saying that it refers to the rarity and preciousness of the specially selected 19-mesh beans by likening them to the rare Sumatran tiger of the island.

The varieties of Indonesian Tiger Mandheling include Catimor, Typica, and Sidikalang. Due to the use of Indonesia’s unique wet-hulling processing method, the green beans are round in shape, yellowish-green in color, with good uniformity and higher moisture content.
