The Terroir - Gayo Highlands
Grown in the highlands of Aceh, this coffee brings you straight to the heart of Sumatra — one of the world’s most iconic coffee origins.
In the Gayo Highlands, coffee isn’t just a crop — it’s a way of life. Since the 19th century, when Arabica was first introduced, local families have cultivated coffee on the same lands, passing down knowledge through generations. These are long-established farms — not newly cleared plantations — helping preserve the surrounding forest and protect the region from further deforestation.
Every tree is carefully tended and handpicked with pride, reflecting a deep connection between the farmers and their land.
At high altitudes of 1,200–1,700 meters, combined with rich volcanic soil, the cherries ripen slowly — building natural sweetness and complexity. After harvest, they are processed with care to bring out their full character.
What you taste in the cup is the result of that entire journey:
rich notes of dark chocolate, caramel, hints of tropical fruit, and gentle spices — full, comforting, and layered.
But beyond the flavor, this coffee represents something more — a community committed to quality, sustainability, and protecting their environment for generations to come.
A coffee with depth, character, and a story you can truly feel good about.
Brewing Recipe (Espresso light Roast)
Extraction philosophy: light roast espresso requires you to go outside your normal parameter.
Suggested starting point:
Coffee-in: 18 grams
Coffee-out: 38 to 42 grams
- Brewing time: 25-33 seconds
- Note: longer pre-infusion is recommended, if possible.
Grind finer than medium espresso.
Higher coffee to water ratio often reveals sweetness and reduces sharpness.
Frequently asked questions
ABout the coffee
Is the coffee freshly roasted?
Yes. We roast our coffee in small batches every week. After roasting, the beans are rested for at least one week before shipping. This allows them to reach optimal freshness and ensures they’re ready to brew when they arrive.
Why do the beans need to rest for one to two weeks after roasting?
After roasting, coffee beans naturally release carbon dioxide in a process called degassing. During this resting period, the flavors continue to develop and stabilize. If the beans are used too soon, the coffee may taste unbalanced and produce excessive gas during brewing, leading to suboptimal extraction. In addition, dialing in becomes inconsistent during this phase, making it more difficult to achieve stable and repeatable results.
When is the optimal time to consume our coffee?
Typically, our coffee performs at its peak between 2 weeks and 3 months after roasting, when the flavors are fully developed and stable.
