Beans from this Indonesian island are unlike any other in the world. This is due to their unique processing protocol, which falls somewhere between washed and unwashed. The Gayo people occupy the northern part of the island, where the best coffee grows. We roast this one a bit darker to augment the heavy body and accentuate the inherent earth notes in the cup. If you use cream and/or sugar, try this!
