Mandheling is grown in Sumatra, the second-largest island in the Republic of Indonesia, in North Sumatra and Aceh. This coffee is named after the Mandailing people, an ethnic group that traditionally grew and processed coffee in the Tapanuli region of North Sumatra. As the coffee became popular on a global scale, Mandheling became a trade name, referencing a much broader production region (including the Gayo, Acehnese and others).

Mandheling coffees are grown by small holders in shade, usually organically in practice. InterAmerican buys Grade 1 Sumatra coffees as Double-Picked (DP) or Triple-Picked (TP), referring to the number of times the coffee is hand-sorted for defects.
