Three Khuns comes directly from Myanmar, and was imported by Steven and Stephen at Pink Headed Duck (PHD). The name comes from the three founders Khun Kyaw Min Htike, Khun Tun Lin, and Khun Kyaw Thein, and they run the Indigo Mountain co-op group in Hopong. “Khun” is similar to “Mr.” in English, and is used as a sign of respect. The coffee cherries come from producers who are part of the Pa-O ethnic group, and there are currently 14 members who are part of the organization.

This coffee had a ton of berries and milk chocolate on the nose, along with big raspberry and berry jam notes that come through the cup as well. This cup has a touch of earthiness that brings it all together in a way to highlight the complexity in this coffee. 

250g bag. Roasted in Toronto, Ontario.

ORIGIN DEEP DIVE

Myanmar’s coffee story is fascinating and unexpected. While coffee was first introduced in the late 19th century during British colonial rule, it didn’t take off until much later. For decades, Myanmar’s Shan State was known more for poppy farming and opium production than for coffee. But in the early 2000s, efforts to combat opium cultivation sparked a shift. International development programs and the government encouraged farmers to transition to coffee as a sustainable alternative crop, and the high-altitude regions like Ywangan and Pyin Oo Lwin turned out to be perfect for Arabica production.

Initially, Myanmar’s coffee was grown for local consumption, but the specialty coffee movement put the country on the global map. Producers embraced natural and honey processing, resulting in coffees with vibrant acidity, fruity sweetness, and distinct flavour profiles that stand out on the world stage.

Today, Myanmar’s coffee industry is thriving, exporting over 83,000 bags (approximately 5,000 tons) of coffee annually. And based on how tasty these cups are, this is likely just the start.
