This coffee is produced by Ayo and Mika in the Baanmai village near Pang Khon, Chiang Rai, Thailand, at an altitude of 1,350 meters. It is a Catuai variety coffee processed using the White Honey method, where the cherries are fermented before being pulped and dried with the mucilage intact. This light roast offers a clean cup with flavor notes of watermelon, milk jujube, pomelo, and honey.
