where to buy 5 kilos of good local coffee in Chiang mai area?

[Taco]

Doing the mae hong son loop next week and want to get 5 killos or so of coffee (gf is not going to like that luggage ;)).  Doesnt need to be in Chiang mai although it is easier not lugging it around but just looking for suggesting of what and where is a full bodied local roast at not crazy prices that goes well in a french  press.

thx!

Duang Dee 3rd! Try to catch the owner in and on a 5 Kg. order, he will give you a very nice discount - but don't forget to ask!

Plenty of local farmers selling over Facebook, in case you don't want to haul it...

Redcliffcoffee.com ask for Derek. They have new arabica. Only grown by them here inLOS

Ditto on the RedCliff.  The medium blend is great - hasn't been roaster black!

Not the most specific pronoun to use. If I called everyone would be "nong".

[mettech]

Any idea where I could get some like that around Buriram ??

Tks.

Yeah, excellent coffee...comes from Chiang Dao area.

To me all coffee is organic (But I wont pay the price these addicts insist on)  The 5kg for 340 baht sounds very tempting as long as it tastes good.....

Again, that is a retail price w/o any type of discount. And that user paid 1,700 Baht @ 340/Kg. which is a very high price. Sorry, but nowhere will sell you 5 Kg. for 340 Baht!

Cheers for the clarification...I thought it sounded too good etc.  I'll probably just stick to Hillkoff (Good variety and price range to match) or Sole Cafe from Makro (Sure its cheap but it tastes ok)  and its gotta be better than instant!
