About the Coffee: This is a unique Indonesian coffee produced by around 500 farming families located in Jagong Jeget, in central Aceh province, located at the northwest tip of the Sumatran Island. The greater region of Aceh is the source of what were once called “Mandheling” coffees, though that term is used more as a marketing idea than a true region when applied to coffee at present. Aceh is sometimes referred to as Gayo, a nod to the Gayonese population whose presence in Aceh dates to the 11th century.Farmers in this group are organized around the Gayo Lauser Antara Cooperative, a recent initiative founded in 2015. Forgoing the typically seen wet-hulled process, this lot of coffee was fruit dried as a natural on raised beds.
