This is another coffee that originated with a really nice Sumatra lot brought into the U.S., and then was sent to water-process decaffeinator in Mexico. The difference here is important to note. In the past many decaf lots of Sumatra were bought by the plant itself, then sold to coffee brokers, without regard for the original quality of the green coffee. The result was very flat coffee with little "origin character". Here we have a Mandheling type coffee with strongly Sumatra flavor profile (Remember, Mandheling is a trade name for Sumatra coffees, not a particular region. But this coffee originates in the Lake Tawar-Takengon area of Aceh district). I cupped quite a few Fair Trade, Organic and FTO lots to pick out this one, which is a standard Grade One Mandheling that survived the decaffeination process intact.
