Greenland - Myanmar

About this coffee…

Refreshing flavours of summer fruit squash, freshly picked Green Apple coupled with ripe-bramble Blackcurrant give this coffee the full-body any roaster would be searching for in a Myanmar coffee.

Greenland is a family business led by U Sai Wan and is one of the first farms Indochina visited at the start of their coffee sourcing journey. This wonderful coffee shows how the renowned variety SL28 can thrive in shade-grown conditions near the border of Mandalay Division and Northern Shan State.

Green Land estate lies on the road between Pyin Oo Lwin and Mogok, near the border of Mandalay Division and Northern Shan State. This is a family business led by U Sai Wan, who has childhood memories of seeing coffee farms along the road near Pyin Oo Lwin each time his parents took him from Yangon to visit family in Northern Shan. Now he runs one of the largest arabica plantations in the country (about 450 acres) and has won awards over multiple years of Myanmar’s national quality competitions.

U Sai Wan is a Sales Director of Mandalay Coffee Group, one of the primary leaders in the Myanmar Coffee Association, and a leading innovator of the national industry. He operates the estate together with his uncle and aunt, along with two local agronomists and many local workers.
