This region is probably the most well known in Indonesia, and rightfully so, the coffee has been extremely consistent. Sumatra is considered massive and full bodied, and low in acidity. The coffee plants in Sumatra grow along fruit trees, spice plants and other crops in their shade. Some farmers let the fruit fall to the ground believing that this enhances the coffee's flavour through the soil. Sumatra is smooth with herbal nuances. This is a very popular coffee.
