Gayo Arabica Coffee
The region associated to the production of the Gayo Arabica Coffee is located in the Gayo Highlands on the northern most part of the Bukit Barisan mountain range.
Coffee in the Gayo Highlands was first introduced in the 1930s by the Dutch to accommodate the demands originating from the European market. Over the decades coffee has become increasingly important in the economic development of our Region, becoming one of the most important commodities, as local consumption and international demand have increased.
The direct involvement of the local population in the coffee production is the strength of the Gayo Arabica Coffee as the red berries are sourced from our farmers and processed locally. This allows a close control on the activities of the farmers and producers to maintaining high quality and production standards.
Gayo Arabica Coffee’s entry to the world commodity market is due to its highly valued, typical flavor. Its fine aroma and lack of bitter taste have become the characteristics of the Gayo Arabica Coffee product. Coffee conosseurs appreciate the distinctive characteristics of Gayo Arabica Coffee, particularly its light earthy notes balanced with full body and a smooth aftertaste, mild acidity, a combination of spice and sweetness, and some elegant fruit notes.
