The traditional house of the Gayo is called Umah. Their language does not have a writing system, but folk tales, stories and poetry are passed down in oral tradition. The Gayonese language has four dialects: Lut, Serbejadi-Lukup, Lut and Luwes. Their homeland lies in the Barisan Mountains which has elevations of over 12,000 feet and extends more than one thousand miles. Other than that, the Gayo population also covers Southeast Aceh Regency and Aceh Tamiang Regency. Some of them live in several districts in other regencies, such as Serbejadi District, Simpang Jernih District, and Peunaron District in East Aceh Regency and Beutong District in Nagan Raya Regency. Most Gayo live in three regencies in Aceh namely Bener Meriah, Central Aceh, and Gayo Lues. The Gayo tribe has a population of 336,856 and they live predominantly in the mountains.

The process uses water to remove the cherry’s red pulp and mucilage, while also removing the parchment layer in a “wet huller”. Sumatran coffee is truly differentiated because of its unique wet-hulled processing method. But with favorable climate conditions, rich, fertile soil, and a high altitude, conditions are ideal for growing arabica coffee. Growers in this region have an average of 0.5 - 1 hectare dedicated to coffee. Our Sumatra Gayo coffee comes from smallholders in the Aceh area.
