The rainy season is here in Luang Prabang! Our coffee project has been really busy sending around 300,000 coffee trees to local farmers in the mountains surrounding Luang Prabang. In the near future we will be buying this coffee from them and roasting it fresh for you at our Caffè. For now, the rain is watering all of these new young trees high in the mountain fields.
The rains have swelled the Mekong and made everything green. It is very refreshing when it rains, but when it doesn't, Luang Prabang gets very hot! So we are now in the process of gearing up for the fall and this will include opening our upstairs as a dining section, complete with couches, air-conditioning and a fantastic view of the Mekong river below. The Saffron Espresso Caffè will also be making some new additions to our menu as well as offering new Saffron T-shirts for sale with our golden coffee tree logo. Please keep watch for these new developments!
See you soon in the Enchanted City!
