The Gayo highlands are part of the Bukit Barisan mountains in the Aceh region of northern Sumatra, where the tip of the island points toward the Bay of Bengal. Coffee farms are as common here as is the word “Gayo,” a moniker as likely to be attached to hotels, restaurants, and campgrounds around Lake Tawar as green coffee. The Gayo people have lived in the central highlands of Aceh for more than 1,000 years in small villages called “kampongs.” Although the Gayo people remained fiercely independent during Dutch occupation, they took quickly to coffee farming. The altitude, soil, and dramatic variations in weather are ideal for growing coffee and overtook tea and pepper, the dominant cash crops until early in the 20th century.
