Why this lot is worth tasting
Ms. Duyen grows Thien Truong Robusta in Dak Ha, the coffee capital of Kon Tum. Rubber trees intercropped through the farm give the coffee shade and shelter from the wind, and drip irrigation delivers water to the base of every tree.
Processing and grading
Cherries are processed natural (dry) by 1300’S Coffee: the whole cherry is dried before the bean is hulled out. Natural processing typically gives Robusta more body and a rounder, sweeter cup than washed processing. The green beans are then sorted to screen 16–18 and graded to moisture 12.5% max, black beans 0.1% max, broken beans 0.3% max and foreign matter 0.1% max.
Who this lot is for
At 15 bags of 20 kg, the lot is large enough to keep a single-farm Robusta on the menu for several months, and small enough to keep the full traceability of one household. Natural Robusta works well in espresso blends, where it adds body and crema, in milk-based drinks and cold brew, and in traditional Vietnamese phin coffee and cà phê sữa đá.
Traceability
Every bag in this lot comes from one farm and one household: Kon Tum Robusta Coffee Farm of Ms. Duyen. Our agronomy team supports the farm through the season, and 1300’S Coffee buys, processes, grades and delivers the lot you order.
