Green Arabica Coffee for Belgium
Belgium buyers sourcing Lao green Arabica work with a short, documented supply chain: Volcana Coffee grows and processes on the Bolaven Plateau, ships via Antwerp-Bruges (≈ 4–5 weeks via laem chabang), and delivers the full document package your import process requires.
Our core export: high-grown washed Arabica from the Bolaven Plateau — predominantly Catimor with heritage Typica lots — grown at 1,000–1,350 m on volcanic soil and processed at our own washing stations. Typical cup scores run 83–86 SCA, with chocolate, brown sugar, and mild citrus as the signature profile.
Lots are prepared to buyer specification (screen, moisture 10–12%, defect ceiling), rested in parchment, milled to order, and shipped in GrainPro-lined 60 kg jute bags with SGS pre-shipment inspection as standard.
