Our first ever coffee from Myanmar, with some extremely interesting and distinctive characteristics. We typically bring in more fruit focussed coffees but this is coffee is quite different, having savoury tones throughout. Notes of melon with a hint of fresh basil and pine on the finish.

Roast Level: Light/Medium
Farm:  Ywangan Smallholders
Region: Shan State
Country: Myanmar
Altitude: 1280 MASL

For this season, MCG worked with over 50 smallholder farmers, each of whom cultivates approximately 0.25-3 acres of land, with coffee plants intercropped with a variety of produce such as avocados, jackfruit, papaya, macadamia and djenkol beans. Coffee varieties include about 80% Red Catuai, 10% S-795 and 10% Costa Rica T8667, Caturra, and San Ramon. The different types of trees act as a buffer to the spread of leaf rust and provide much needed shade, for both the coffee and the families who welcome the shade around their homes. Most of the farmers do not use fertiliser, but there is a big difference in quality and yield from the wealthier farmers that can use manure from their cattle.
