THE ANATOMY OF COFFEE CULTIVATION ON THE PLANTATION – Harvesting Handpicking Strip-picking – Separating the Beans from the Fruit Pulp Wet Processing Dry Processing – The Main Coffee-Producing Countries – Coffee's Contribution to the Ecosystem Almost all Indonesian coffee is grown on three islands: Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi. Sumatra supplies 68% of the country's total production. The island's arabica varieties are marketed under the "Sumatran" and "Blue Sumatran" names. With its rich aroma and low acidity, "Mandheling" is known as "the world's heaviest coffee". "Gayo Mountain" is described as sweet, spicy, exotic and herbal, while some experts believe that "Ankola" is the world's best unwashed arabica. In the 17-18th centuries, Western powers began to cultivate coffee in their colonies in Africa, South America and Asia. After independence, these former colonies continued to produce coffee and today export green coffee beans all over the world.
