Description
Sumatra Lintong Coffee showcases the best of Indonesia. It is a full-bodied, dark-roasted, high-grade, arabica bean Coffee boasting earthy and spicy notes.
Few other types offer the same Sumatra Coffee characteristics in a single sip, thus making it a favourite among casual drinkers and connoisseurs alike. Whichever camp you find yourself in, you’ll indeed find a true gem in this brew.
We help it to reach its full potential with the latest state-of-the-art Neuhaus Neotec fluidised air-bed system. This process functions by using heat transference to roast the beans.
Perhaps best of all, our Fresh Coffee is pack it fresh to order, thereby ensuring quality and consistency from first to last cuppa. Why not try this remarkable Coffee with The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company today?
What is Sumatra Coffee from Indonesia?
Your favourite brew started life in Ethiopia some 1,000 years ago. Coffee beans didn’t arrive in Indonesia until the late-17th or early-18th centuries, having been introduced by the Dutch. Its production nevertheless spread quickly.
However, in the 1880s, a plant-based disease called Coffee rust all but destroyed crops, particularly on the Indonesian island of Java - as well as in Sumatra.
Local farmers had no choice but to move out of the lowlands and onto high plateaus in an attempt to maintain profitable cultivation.
It worked. What’s more, the higher altitudes improved the quality of the beans, a quality that indeed remains to this day.
Indonesia, and Sumatra in particular, is now one of the best-known and most-loved Coffee-growing regions in the world. And with good reason.
Where is Sumatra Coffee Grown?
Sumatra Coffee Beans originate from the north-central region of Sumatra, specifically near Lake Toba. The area itself is, in fact, called Lintong, its landscape offering unique soils and near-perfect climatic conditions.
These characteristics lend themselves to the outstanding and unmistakably bold taste of Sumatra Lintong Coffee. Why not find out for yourself? You won’t be disappointed.

Great aroma and I drank this every day till it was gone. Shame they can't find a suitable ethical source providing rainforest guarantees or I would give it 5 stars and buy it more than once a year.
