THE VALUE OF SON LA ARABICA COFFEE
In 2017, Son La’s coffee beans, whether raw, roasted, or ground, earned the prestigious “Son La Coffee” geographical indication certification. This milestone confirmed the exceptional quality and brand of Son La Arabica coffee.
Son La Arabica is also deeply connected to the local culture and sustainable farming practices of the Tai Dam and Mông ethnic communities.
