About this experience

In Bountieng's words.

Bountieng's family has been growing coffee on the Bolaven plateau for three generations. You'll walk a row, pick a few cherries (in season), see processing, then sit at the small roasting hut and roast a small batch yourself — full control over the colour. End with a cupping of three different processing methods. Beans to take home.
