THE UNIQUE STORY
In pursuit of the best quality Sumatran coffee, this coffee is clean and the flavor reminds us of chocolate, simple syrup sweetness, molasses, and apple.

ADDITIONAL INFO
Harimau Tiger is a signature Cafe Imports coffee, capturing the classic characteristics of a Sumatran coffee while also offering a cleaner, sweeter profile and higher cup quality than a standard Mandheling. As with our other signature coffees, Harimau Tiger is sourced based on quality and profile, and carries limited or no traceability.
This coffee is however traced to the Aceh region, in northern Sumatra, which is an incredible region for coffee production. The average farm is one hectare, 80% of producers within northern Sumatra are women, and 95% of producers are smallholders. The region is diverse, geographically speaking. It is surrounded by beaches with a swampy inland, and the Barisan Mountains make up the inner two-thirds of the area. Coffee is grown on this volcanic mountain amongst the rainforest. One of the notable features of this area is Lake Taboa, the largest volcanic lake in the world.
