Myanmar Aromatic Coop South Shan
Peach, Starfruit, Lemon
Myanmar started to grow coffee beans at the end of the 19th century, recently it has cooperated with the UN, more than 1,000 farmers have joined the plan to replace coffee with drugs in coffee cultivation.
At the beginning of the transition period, farmers did not have enough capital for modern and scientific planting and planted in traditional and fertilizer-free ways, because the management and processing technology was not yet mature, but through the guidance of the UN experts and the help from officials of the Myanmar government, now farmers have the proper skills and knowledge to plant better coffee than before.
Natural shade forest and low pollution natural environment help growing specialty coffee consistently. After years, the flavour performance has fully integrated the local terroir conditions, showing unexpected quality.
More than half of coffee farmers are concentrated around Nan Shan State and Wacheng City, especially the area adjacent to Meimiao(Pyin Oo Lwin) is arguably the most important and best coffee producing area in Myanmar.
Mr. Lim is the president of Aromatic Cooperative, which is located in South Shan State, Myanmar. It mainly processes coffee beans with an average height of 1500 to 1700 meters, include Catimor, Catuai, Cuturra and Bourbon.
Roasters Notes:
It's a delight to find such a quality coffee from an uncommon origin like Myanmar, a hint that specialty is slowly but surely bringing up quality of coffees all over the world. This coffee is well processed and contains almost no more hints of thick herbal, earthy tones as known from coffees in the South East Asia region from the primary growing of Catimor varietal.
