Sumatra Takengon

TASTING NOTES FROM THE FARM: Vanilla, Dark Chocolate, Cedar

Sumatra Takengon comes to us from Putra Gayo, a mill that also partners with farms in Aceh, northern Sumatra. Owned by Iwannitosa Putra, the mill collects coffee from over 250 hectares of coffee farms that consist of Gayo 1, 2, and 3 coffee trees. Aceh itself is one of Indonesia’s most celebrated coffee areas, with fertile volcanic soil, a rainforest climate, and proximity to Lake Toba, the world’s largest volcanic lake. The region’s diverse landscape and ideal growing conditions make it one of the most distinctive origins in the country.
