The Background of the project:
In 2020 CLEAN project in partnership with the Coffee Quality Institute, organised the first virtual “Taste of Laos” Coffee event which helped to raise the profile of specialty arabica and robusta coffees from Laos with international buyers. Due to the successful visibility raised then, in 2021 the first inaugural Lao Coffee Competition took place designed specifically to identify by scoring following SCA standards the best quality coffee from Laos.
This first event was also part of the USDA funded CLEAN Project and further supported by L ‘Agence Française de Développement (AFD) and the Swiss Development and Cooperation (SDC). The event positioned Lao, through its participants to the competition to be recognised as “Specialty Grade”.
As a result, and with the aim of including more participants, the competition has been repeatead in 2022, with additional support from the Arise Plus Laos PDR project to facilitate sales transactions between the sellers of the top competition lots and international buyers using an online auction.
