story cofe in nanggroe

Aceh coffee originated from the Netherlands brought by a Dutch businessman in the XVII century through Batavia (now Jakarta) and then into Aceh. The first coffee introduced was Arabica type coffee which later developed with a more diverse type.
In the world, coffee can be divided into 2 groups by type, namely Arabica coffee and Robusta coffee. In Aceh these two types of coffee are cultivated by the local community. Arabica coffee is commonly cultivated in the highlands of Gayo Land, including Takengon, Southeast Aceh, and Gayo Lues. While in Pidie (mainly Tangse and Geumpang) and Aceh Barat, people prefer to develop Robusta coffee
