Thai Coffee?!? A rare origin in the U.S. for high quality coffee, but it turns out they grow a lot of coffee in Thailand. The specialty market has been up and coming and the beans getting better and better. Similar to origins like India but with more hybrid processing methods. These beans have a unique story and taste.

The villagers of Law Wu belong to the Lahu tribe, an indigenous group originally hailing from China and mainland Southeast Asia. The village’s location at 1,700 meters above sea level offers an ideal environment for coffee cultivation. The cool climate, consistent shade, and unique terrain of the region create the perfect conditions for growing exceptional coffee. Although coffee has only been grown in this area for about 15 years, the quality and flavor of the beans have steadily improved, attracting the attention of those looking for standout microlots.

Law Wu village began producing specialty coffee in 2017, and in that time they have shown tremendous growth. In the first season it was just four dedicated farmers. After seeing the consistency and quality of the work, the village expanded to include five more members. Today, the village’s nine coffee farmers represent a growing community of people committed to cultivating top-quality coffee beans.

Much of the coffee from Law Wu is shade-grown, allowing the cherries to mature more slowly and develop a fuller, more complex flavor. Given the higher elevation and cooler climate, this unique geography enables the beans to retain their distinct characteristics, leading to a richer, more layered profile.
