From 9°N to Florida: A Transcontinental Journey for Fine Robusta, and a Giant Leap for Nine North Lake

When the order notification chimed on ninenorthlake.com recently, we couldn't help but smile at the shipping destination: Florida, USA. Knowing that a 200g bag of our Fine Robusta is traveling across the globe to become the morning brew for a seasoned coffee enthusiast is exactly why we do what we do.

It is a beautiful reminder that coffee is a universal language. When a product is crafted with intention, geographical borders simply disappear.

The Evolution of a Chumphon Robusta

Here at Nine North Lake, situated precisely at 9°N, 98°E in Lamae, Chumphon, our mission has always been grounded in mindful cultivation. As the central processing hub for the Lamae Hills Coffee community enterprise, we’ve spent the recent 2025/2026 harvest season pushing the boundaries of what Thai Robusta can be.

We didn't just stop at our signature honey process; we actively experimented with traditional natural and anaerobic fermentation. The result is a complex, specialty-grade profile that clearly resonates with seasoned coffee lovers who are willing to seek out single-estate beans from the other side of the world. Every order placed directly through our website validates our transition toward permaculture, biodiversity, and community-driven agriculture.

Bridging the Distance: Terra9 is Now on the App Store!

While sending a package to Florida is a thrilling physical connection, we want to bring you even closer to the soil where your coffee grows. Today, we are beyond excited to announce that our official app, Terra9, has been approved by Apple and is now live on iOS!

Terra9 is designed as a two-pronged tool to connect coffee farmers with ecosystem enthusiasts worldwide. For our Lamae Hills Coffee network, it serves as a vital farm management and traceability tool, ensuring transparency from cherry to cup. For our global community, it lays the digital groundwork for our upcoming 'Adopt-a-Tree' program.

Soon, whether you are sipping espresso in Bangkok or brewing a pour-over in Florida, you will be able to use Terra9 to adopt and support a specific coffee tree at Nine North Lake or from one of our partner farmers. You’ll be able to watch it thrive, knowing you are directly contributing to a sustainable, biodiverse ecosystem.
