JC's Road Trip - Chiang Rai Part 4

Part 4 of living or retiring in Chiang Rai includes is an interview with one of our members who is living up in the mountains over Chiang Rai and living on a coffee farm in a hill tribe village.

Let’s see what inspired him to make the move and how he feels about living in the Thai mountains. And learn about Kopi luwak, or civet coffee.

Thailand is a coffee nation, ranked fourth (after Vietnam, Indonesia and India) in Asia in annual raw coffee production. While there are many species of coffee trees in the world, only Arabica and Robusta have major economic significance, both of which are grown in Thailand.

At present, Thailand produces approximately:
• 50,000 – 80,000 tons of Robusta coffee, of which 40% (ca. 30,000 tons) are processed locally and about 60% (ca. 50,000 tons) is exported.
• A few thousand tons of Arabica coffee, which are almost entirely processed locally.

Join me on my road trip and let’s see what Chiang Rai has to offer these days.
