Coffee is more than a morning ritual; it’s a connection. A connection to the earth, to the hands that cultivate it, and to the moments of clarity it brings. At MIN-TE, our journey began with a simple, yet profound question: What if we could experience coffee in its purest form?
This question sparked a half-year-long quest, taking us far from the commercial coffee aisle and deep into the heart of a genuine coffee tradition. We were searching for a coffee that was not only exceptional in taste but was also grown with respect—for the environment, for the farmers, and for your health.
A Hidden Treasure in Northern Thailand

Our search led us to the mist-covered highlands of Northern Thailand, to a pristine, untouched growing region where the air is clean and the soil is nourished by mountain springs. Here, we didn’t just find extraordinary Arabica coffee trees; we found a community of farmers whose families have cultivated this land for generations.
This was the source we had been dreaming of. Here, the principles of organic farming aren’t a modern trend; they are a way of life. These dedicated farmers practice a rich Thai coffee heritage, working in harmony with nature to produce beans of incredible character and purity, completely free from pesticides and chemicals. We knew immediately that we had found our partners.
