Led by Fuadi Pitsuwan and Jane Kittirattanapaiboon, Beanspire collaborates closely with the 19-member cooperative in the Mae Chedi district of Chiang Rai. Traditionally, Mae Chedi was known primarily for its tea plantations, which were the main source of income for many farmers. While coffee has always been present in the region, it has always been secondary to tea. Today, with the rising demand for Thai specialty coffee, a new generation of farmers is embracing coffee cultivation with a dedication that has set the nation apart as one of the fastest-developing coffee-producing countries. This year, we have the washed lot from Mae Chedi. One of only a few groups in Thailand to employ a Kenya-style washed, double-fermentation: all coffee is hand-picked, depulped, dry-fermented for 48 hours, wet-fermented for 8 hours, washed with mountain water, then sun-dried on raised bamboo beds. The result is a very clean coffee with typical ‘Asian’ spicy flavors, but combined with a sweetness not often found in other Asian coffees. All our coffees are roasted fresh every week. After your order, the coffee will be ready for shipping or pick up after 2 – 3 days. Shipping pick up at roastery: free within Netherlands: € 4,95 -> orders above 50 euro: free shipping EU shipping: from € 8,00 depending on destination, weight and order quantity. We offer all our coffees in beans, because they stay fresh for much longer than pre-ground coffee. If you’d like to have your coffee ground, please indicate in the notes.
