Dung K’No
Dung K’No Commune is centered around a small village in the Lam Dong province in the central highlands of Vietnam. Farmers in the area average 1.1 ha of land and grow coffee among other crops such as persimmon, jackfruit, macadamia, and avocado. Daily harvests are delivered to the Bao Loc Dry Mill or the Duc Trong Wet Mill to be processed.
At the wet mill, the coffee is washed and then dried on raised beds or patios for about 5-7 days.
Catimor
The original cross of Caturra and Timor Hybrid was created by CIFC, Portugal (1959); tested in Angola and Brazil; and released in Brazil in 1970. “Catimor”” refers to a class of similar hybrids
Lam Dong
Lam Dong is a mountainous province in the Central Highlands of Vietnam, and the only province not bordering Laos or Cambodia. The Central Highlands is comprised of a series of contiguous plateaus, with some of the highest peaks in northern Lam Dong. Lam Dong is 70% forested and experiences a tropical monsoon climate with steady year-round temperatures. On average, temperatures range from 60-73°F with little fluctuation but can be more extreme depending on the elevation. Rainfall per year is between 60-106 inches. The complex topography, mild weather, predictable rainy seasons, and varying vegetation contribute to an ecosystem that describes how coffee has been produced in such large quantities since the mid-1900s.
