Natural Endowments

Terroir, Elevation & Climate of Dak Ha

The unique combination of ancient volcanic basalt soil, plateau elevation, and distinct dry-wet seasons shapes the dense bean structure and rich aroma of Dak Ha Robusta.

Fertile Ancient Red Basalt Soil

Over 1 meter deep, porous, and rich in trace minerals and organic matter. Excellent drainage combined with deep moisture retention allows coffee roots to penetrate deeply and absorb rich nutrients.

Cultivation layer > 1m deep

Golden Altitude Belt 600m – 800m

Located on a breezy plateau with abundant daytime sunshine and cool nights (10 – 12°C diurnal temperature range). Coffee cherries ripen slowly, accumulating rich natural sugars.

High day-night temperature range

Natural Sunshine, Wind & Morning Mist

Over 2,200 hours of sunshine annually combined with gentle morning mist create a cool microclimate—ideal for both traditional sun-drying and greenhouse raised-bed processing.

Over 2,200 sunshine hours / year

Pure Natural Highland Water

Irrigation and wet-processing water comes from pure underground springs and natural highland streams, ensuring float-sorted coffee cherries remain clean, pure, and completely safe.
