Laos
This coop was started in 2007 with French aid to help farmers create a way to reach higher-paying export markets. Through Coop Coffees (the buying group we helped start), Bongo is among the first North American buyers of this coffee. Laos is home to varying micro-climates along its lush Bolaven Plateau where this specialty coffee is grown and hand-picked at 3,300 feet.
Taste Notes. Delicate yet still earthy with notes of citrus, salted milk chocolate and toasted marshmallow.
