Grown in the Bener Meriah Gayo Highlands region, Golden Gayo is a rich earthy coffee with notes of leather, tobacco, and honey in the finish, according to professional tasters. An excellent example of classic Sumatra coffee. Click to download more information.
Smooth, dark, rich, non acidic coffee. So fresh and so good !!!!
I like the complexity of these beans -- their character changes dramatically with how you roast them. I've roasted from first cracking to a deep second crack, and enjoy it all. Also an interesting bean to blend together at different roast finishes. Only down side is that the beans don't roast evenly for lighter roasting finishes (because of size variation in the beans), but I'd still recommend these.
I have tried it at different roasting times , and i roast until i bring the oil out and it is the best for me. Best coffee i have ever had.
I find that a medium roast (no oil on the roasted beans) brings out more and more subtle flavors.
Pros: This is a full bodied coffee with pleanty of flavor. I have had no problem getting as dark as i want with my Plus 8 (darker sometimes ;-)
