Organic Sumatra Utamagro Tani Gayo comes to us from our friends at Royal Coffee in Emeryville, CA. Hailing from the Takengon highlands, a mountainous area in the northern province of Aceh on the Indonesian island of Sumatra, the coffee is produced on small, family-owned farms organized around the Utamagro Tani Gayo Cooperative. Royal has this to say about the Utamagro Tani Gayo Cooperative and the growing region:
“This region of Indonesia is also referred to as the Gayo land because the coffee farmers are from the Gayonese ethnic group. A high percentage of farmers, typically from the most remote villages of the Takengon highlands, are widows who lost their husbands during periods of conflict in Aceh. Natural disasters also present frequent challenges for maintaining infrastructure in this otherwise naturally beautiful and mineral rich micro-region surrounding Lake Tawa. Despite these challenges, UtamaGroTani Gayo has worked tirelessly to establish a cooperative and also organic and fairtrade certification. UtamaGroTani Gayo is focused on quality coffee production through education on best organic agricultural practices and environmental stewardship for more than 1,175 members who cultivate coffee on parcels that average 2.5 acres in size.”
On the cupping table, we found this coffee to have deliciously bold notes of chocolate and herbs, supported by a full, round body and sharp acidity. A classic expression of the exotic and delicious Sumatran cup profile, Utamagro Tani Gayo is perfect a for those who desire a rich, intense cup, especially in filter and French press brewing methods. We can’t wait for you to try it.
