Meet Nawin Yaesorkoo from Doi Chang!

Discover the incredible journey of Nawin Yaesorkoo, a dedicated coffee processor from Doi Chang, one of the largest coffee-growing regions in northern Thailand. As a third-generation farmer, Nawin continues the legacy of his grandfather and father, managing his own farm and collaborating with 20 others to produce exceptional coffee on a large scale—a remarkable achievement in the world of coffee processing.

Ten years ago, Nawin began exporting his coffee to the U.S. with the help of his brother and an American missionary friend. They faced many challenges and learned through trial and error. In 2017, Nawin met Fuadi from Beanspire, who introduced innovative techniques to enhance coffee quality. With Fuadi's expertise, Nawin's coffee started reaching global markets, especially in Europe.

Nawin is passionate about specialty coffee, known for its high quality. He believes that every batch and process is unique and aims to maintain consistency in large-scale production, ensuring everyone can enjoy top-notch coffee year-round.

However, climate change poses significant challenges for coffee farmers. Weather changes, price fluctuations, and cultivation issues have led to reduced production. Nawin is determined to tackle these challenges by focusing on soil health and moisture management. He's also experimenting with different types of yeasts and refining processing techniques to consistently produce excellent coffee on a larger scale.

The Thai farming community is tight-knit, with farmers sharing knowledge to grow together in the industry. Nawin collaborates with other leading coffee processors like Goh and Oil from Sirinya Coffee Farm.

Nawin's relentless pursuit of improvement drives him to find new machines, better depulpers, and conduct continuous experiments. His passion for excellence and innovation ensures that his farm and coffee production keep getting better.

Nawin wants to share a message with everyone who supports Thai coffee. He thanks you for your support and assures you that Thai coffee is better than ever. With newfound knowledge and continuous experimentation, Thai coffee has reached new heights. Nawin believes that Thai coffee's bright future lies in its strong, delicate body and good acidity, making it truly unique and unforgettable.

Today, you have the chance to try Nawin's coffee at Newbery Street Coffee Roasters, the local specialty coffee roaster in Greater Boston. We are proud to present Nawin's Red Honey Process coffee.
