Thailand Doi Saket Honey

Doi Saket is the oldest coffee growing area in Thailand, located in Chiang Mai province. Back in the late 1970’s, the first trees that were part of the opium replacement program of the Thai King were tested here, and have never been replaced by higher-yield cultivars like in many other regions. As a result, heirloom varietals, particularly Typica, are still commonplace in many old farms. The coffee trees are 30-40 years old, older than the farmers! We want to demonstrate to the farmers that there are people who appreciate and are willing to pay more for the heirloom cultivar to compensate for the lower yield. Typica is now rare. This is an experimental lot from Doi Saket in Chiang Mai. A young couple quit their white-collar jobs to come back to their parents' coffee farm only 5 years ago. Nui is 34 and is an engineer by training, while Aoy is 32 and is an accountant by training.

Prep
Wet the filter in the V60 cone with hot water over a mug or carafe. Dispose of water. Place 25g of ground coffee into the wet filter and tap sides to even out the grounds.

Bloom
Pour 50g of water and stir to ensure all the grounds are wet. Start timer and wait 30 seconds for the coffee to de-gas.
