Delivery and Returns

Delivery Update 06/08/25 – Royal Mail 48
Many Royal Mail 48 deliveries are delayed in certain areas due Royal Mail scanning issues and staff shortages. The Royal Mail tracking simply says 'We are expecting it'. This is not correct. Royal Mail collects from Redber daily at 16h00.  All our orders are dispatched within 24 to 48 hours.  Please allow a little extra time for your order to arrive. If your parcel is urgent we suggest you use the 24 hour service. 

Due to the poor services our customers are receiving from Royal Mail we will be reviewing the companies we use for delivery in the coming months. 

You can find the latest updates from Royal Mail here.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Description

Sumatra Lintong Grade 1 Medium-Dark Roast provides a balanced and smooth coffee experience with a well-rounded flavour profile. This roast level brings out the natural sweetness and spiciness of the beans, featuring notes of chocolate, brown sugar, and herbal undertones, complemented by a clean body and a bright acidity.

Flavour Profile and Aroma

  • Flavours: Chocolate, herbs, spice, brown sugar
  • Aroma: Mulling spices, fresh earth

Brewing Methods and Serving Suggestions

For a smooth and complex cup, brew this medium-dark roast using a V60 or Chemex pour-over method, which enhances its herbal and spicy notes while maintaining its clean finish. This roast also performs well in a cafetiere, where the full body and bright acidity can balance beautifully to produce a satisfying, rich brew. 

Sumatran Coffee Origin and Details

Originating from the Lake Toba region in North-West Sumatra, Sumatra Lintong Grade 1 coffee is grown at high elevations on volcanic slopes, benefiting from rich soil and ideal climate conditions. The unique Giling Basah process and careful triple-picking of the beans result in a coffee with a complex flavour and a distinctive aroma, making it one of the most recognized coffees from Sumatra.

  • Variety: Ateng, Bergendal
  • Harvest Period: June - December

SUMATRA LINTONG GRADE 1- Medium-Dark Roast Coffee freshly ground for a cafetiere

A very nice coffee but the contents of the bag seems to disappear very quickly. I'm wondering whether there is a hole in the bottom!

Might try again

The tobacco flavours overpowered everything else that I was trying to nail in this coffee with lower temps, could not get any middle ground with it at all.
May do better sitting for a week - just not for me.

Nice!

Nicely balanced and very clean for Indonesia. Advertised acidity is there but in the background. Great fruit flavours to balance the typical earthy backdrop. Roasted medium, medium style grind and medium amount of coffee. V60 pour over method. Was slightly nervous of the leap from Central and South American styles to Indonesia, but the risk was well rewarded.
