■ What Makes Thai Coffee So Special?
Thailand may not be the first country that comes to mind when you think of coffee — but in recent
years, it has become one of the most exciting origins in the world of specialty coffee.
■ A Unique Origin Thai coffee is grown mostly in the northern highlands, in regions like Chiang
Rai, Chiang Mai, and Mae Jan Tai. The altitude, rich soil, and misty climate create the perfect
environment for cultivating high-quality Arabica beans.
Farmers harvest by hand, often using sustainable and organic methods, ensuring both freshness and
ethical practices.
■ From Opium Fields to Coffee Farms In the past, northern Thailand’s mountainous regions were
known for opium cultivation. Through royal development projects, these communities transitioned to
coffee farming — creating new opportunities for families while protecting the environment.
Today, coffee from these same hills represents hope, craftsmanship, and community.
■■■ Ministry of Roasters — A Symbol of Thai Craftsmanship At SpecialityCoffee.ca, we are
proud to partner with Ministry of Roasters from Chiang Rai, led by Anuwat — a passionate artisan
roaster dedicated to expressing the best of Thai terroir.
Their coffees are carefully roasted in small batches, highlighting notes of tropical fruit, chocolate, and
floral sweetness.
Every bag tells a story of origin, pride, and dedication.
■ Why Thai Coffee Is More Expensive Producing specialty-grade Thai coffee is labour-intensive.
Many farms are small, hand-managed, and located in remote areas, making harvesting and transport
challenging.
Additionally, local farmers focus on quality over quantity — meaning fewer beans, but exceptional
taste.
The result: a cup that reflects both artistry and authenticity.
