Description

This single-varietal Java lot is from Phetlamka farm on the Bolavens plateau in southern Laos. Once known as the ‘Kingdom of a Million Elephants’, the average altitude in Laos is over 700 masl but rises to a consistent 1,350masl on the plateau. Numerous rivers and creeks of every size cross the plateau heading west and eventually to the Mekong river. This lovely Natural Processed coffee has notes of jasmine and a honey-like sweetness with a soft acidity and well rounded finish. The Bolavens Plateau in South Laos is the most favourable region for coffee cultivation in the country.
