Gajah Aceh was our first Direct Trade venture into Indonesia. Our producer partners in Indonesia reside well inland from the coast near Takengon and Lake Tawar in the Aceh Province of the archipelago's northern most Island of Sumatra. Our QC team carefully built this lot from three sub-regions around the lake: Kebayakan, Bintang and Pantan Lues. After depulping and minimal fermentation, the coffees are semi-washed then dried on covered patios which protect the beans from the elements.
Laden with aromas of blackberry compote and tamarine, this cup has flavors of plum, blackberry, toffee and earth, finishing sweetly with buttery caramel.
*All coffee is seasonal and subject to limited crop availability. Each bag of coffee we ship comes whole bean and roasted within a week of it leaving our shop.*
