Thailand Chiang Rai

Beanspire has faced significant challenges from the beginning, yet they continue to produce outstanding coffee. This Thailand-based collective works closely with farmers, helping them access international specialty markets and gain the recognition they deserve.

Huai Mae Liam, a coffee-producing village, has long seen its coffee marketed under the names of more well-known regions like Doi Chang and Doi Pangkhon. By highlighting the work of Huai Mae Liam’s farmers, we aim to give them the identity and acknowledgment they’ve earned. This particular lot comes from the farm of Asor Merlaeku, a skilled and innovative 39-year-old farmer.

Last season, we experimented with the white honey process on Asor’s farm, and this year, we successfully replicated it on a slightly larger scale. The coffee undergoes partial fermentation, meaning it is intentionally removed from the fermentation tank before the process is fully complete. This leaves some mucilage on the parchment, creating a flavor profile that blends the brightness of washed coffee with the smoothness and sweetness of honey-processed coffee.

Processing Method:
This white honey coffee is carefully processed to enhance its unique characteristics. The partial fermentation technique preserves its lively brightness while adding sweetness and a smooth mouthfeel.

Green Coffee Preparation:
The green coffee undergoes meticulous preparation, passing through a destoner, huller, size grader, and density table multiple times, followed by thorough hand-sorting. To ensure freshness during shipping, the coffee is packed in triple-layered bags: an outer cotton bag, a middle layer of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), and an innermost GrainPro bag.

Every bag begins with a fresh roast, never warehouse stock. We roast coffee in small batches and ship it shortly after, sealing in the vibrant aroma and flavor so it reaches you at its peak. From roast to doorstep, we make sure your coffee’s journey is as short and as fresh as possible.

We aim to process orders within 1–2 business days, though in some cases it may take up to 3–5 business days.

Most orders are then shipped via USPS Priority Mail or USPS First Class/Ground (Local Zones), with an estimated transit time of 1–3 business days from the shipment date. Other carriers may be used at our discretion.

Once your order ships, you’ll receive a tracking number to follow your package every step of the way.

Exceptions may include:

• Peak seasons (such as holidays)
• Special release coffees with limited roast schedules
