Greetings, coffee aficionados! After a long absence from the amazing Hive Platform coffee community - Cinnamon Cup Coffee -, I'm so excited to share my experience of sipping a cup of the delightful Gayo Highlands Wine Arabica coffee at Galeri Kopi Gayo in Bener Meriah District. The unique flavor of this coffee derives from the ripe red cherries and the special processing method used to craft it. I'm sure you'll love it!
Most of coffee lovers have already known that arabica coffee from Gayo Highlands of Aceh Province in Sumatra Island Indonesia is one of the most sought-after coffees in the world. It is grown in the Gayo Highlands, in the Aceh Province of Indonesia, and is known for its unique taste and aroma. The coffee I tasted today is coffee is made from Arabica beans which is known for its full body, sweet aroma, and earthy flavor.
Wine arabica coffee has a unique processing method, which is what gives it its unique taste and aroma. It is a coffee that has a complex flavor profile and can be enjoyed by all coffee lovers. But sure it’s not wine at all, but pure arabica coffee with special fermentation process for one month or more.
Juan Andika, a friend of mine at Galeri Kopi Gayo served me a cup of wine coffee. He shake it with ice. So, I enjoyed the coffee while it’s cold. It’s really perfect to taste wine arabica gayo coffee when it’s cold or it’s with ice.
Today, he served wine coffee from Roest Brand. Roest is a local brand in Bener Meriah district. The owner of Roest coffee is Herman, a young energic man who also has his own coffee farm.
Yeah, here is Herman! He is grinding the roasted beans of wine coffee for me.
Here is the look of wine coffee roasted beans. It’s roasted in medium profile. According to Juan, wine coffee is absolutely perfect to serve as a drip coffee in medium level of roasting. The wine coffee will deliver complex aroma and taste at medium profile. Mostly, the dominance taste is just like a real wine, and a bit sour, a bit bitter, and some sweet taste as well.
The grinding profile for making coffee in a drip pot must be a bit coarse. The aroma of wine coffee gayo is truly something special. After being ground, the aroma of the beans fills the room with a sweet, earthy scent that is sure to elevate any coffee experience. I would have really enjoyed this unique and flavorful coffee experience with every cup.
