Thailand White Honey

Nawin Yaesorkoo stands out as one of Thailand’s most innovative farmers and coffee processors, managing coffee production at his family farm in Hua Chang and post-harvest processing at his mill in Mae Suai. Mae Suai, a significant coffee-growing area in Thailand, is home to 500 Akha hill tribe households, cultivating varieties like Catuai, Typica, Chiang Mai, and SJ133. The coffee from this region is processed using the White Honey method at Nawin’s mill.

Coffee farming is relatively new in Thailand, attracting young entrepreneurs like Nawin. The industry’s modern history began in the 1970s with a royal project to eradicate opium, introducing coffee trees to areas like Doi Saket. This initiative successfully replaced illicit crops with coffee and other cultivations, leading to thriving farms today. Varieties like Catuai, Typica, and Chiang Mai—a cross between SL-28, Caturra, and Timor hybrid—flourish in this environment.

Mae Suai White Honey coffee is sourced from Beanspire Coffee, a leading Thai exporter. Beanspire’s co-founders, Fuadi Pitsuwan and Jane Kittiratanapaiboon, are part of the young generation propelling Thailand’s coffee industry forward. Thailand’s specialty café and roaster scene thrives, with domestic consumption regularly outpacing production. Only about 5% of Thailand’s specialty coffee is exported annually, carefully selected by Beanspire to showcase Thai producers globally.

Beanspire operates an advanced mill with equipment for density sorting. Jane and Fuadi prioritize quality, ensuring uniformity through multiple sorting stages. Coffee is packed in triple-layer bags—cotton, High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), and GrainPro—to maintain moisture content and preserve quality. We proudly partner with Beanspire to share this unique coffee lot.
