We couldn’t be happier to welcome the new Hti Kham harvest! Like last year’s crop, this coffee bursts with red fruit impressions, blending strawberries and nervy red cherries. The ethnic Pa-O farmers of Hti Kham village in Hopong region, Shan State, formed the Indigo Mountain Co-Op in 2018. By participating in USAID-WinRock’s coffee development program, they were able to transition from illicit poppy growing to specialty coffee production. Under head farmer Khun Sein Shwe, the village quickly gained renown, winning the Overall & Best Natural category in Myanmar’s 2020 coffee cupping competition.
