About Biome Coffee

Biome Coffee – Putting Myanmar Coffee on the Map

Based in Lat Pan Pin, YwaNgan (Shan State) and Pyin Oo Lwin, we are a dedicated producer, processor, and exporter committed to putting Myanmar specialty coffee on the global map—one meticulously fermented lot at a time.

The word Biome represents the living ecosystems—specifically the microbiome—that dictate the quality, sweetness, and complexity of our coffee.

Great coffee isn't created by accident; it's grown and engineered with precision. From soil health in the plantation to temperature-controlled fermentation and slow sun-drying, microbial environment plays crucial role at every single stage of production.

Innovation in Every Lot

We love to experiment. Beyond mastering traditional washed, honey, and natural processes, Biome Coffee experiments with many custom micro-lots each year. From specialized double-anaerobic ferments to signature profile lots—like our Snow Natural, Double Washed—we create distinct, unforgettable taste experiences for coffee roasters and coffee lovers worldwide.

Empowering Our Local Farmers

We believe that sustainable coffee must empower the people who grow it.
The majority of coffee in YwaNgan and Pyin Oo Lwin is cultivated by small-holder farming families. To support our partner farming communities, Biome Coffee operates on a model built on transparency, education, and shared prosperity:

- Equipment & Infrastructure Support: We provide essential processing equipment—including hullers and raised drying beds—to local producer groups at zero cost.
- Technical Training: We share advanced harvesting, sorting, and processing techniques so farmers can elevate their yield and earn higher margins.
- Global Market Access: We bridge the gap between local growers and international roasters, ensuring fair compensation and long-term economic stability for families in Shan State.

By turning raw cherries into premium specialty coffee, we help create sustainable livelihoods that provide a proud, lasting alternative to traditional cash crops in the region.

Our Mission

To put Myanmar on the map through coffee.

Our 3 Pillars: People, Microbes & Terroir

We believe a sustainable future for specialty coffee lies at the intersection of community empowerment, microbial science, and regional land stewardship.

1. People
A sustainable supply chain is built on fair compensation and shared knowledge. By providing zero-cost equipment, technical training, and direct market access, we ensure that our farming communities thrive alongside us.

2. Microbes
The name Biome honors the essential yeasts and micro-organisms driving fermentation. By studying pH, sugar levels, and ambient temperature, we harness microbial activity to create clean, consistent, and innovative flavor profiles.

3. Terroir
Rooted in Lat Pan Pin, YwaNgan, and Pyin Oo Lwin, our focus on soil health, shade management, and microclimates ensures we celebrate the distinctive natural character of Shan State's unique origin.
