Once known as the Kingdom of a Million Elephants, the average altitude in Laos is over 700 masl and on the Bolaven Plateau at the southern tip of Laos, where 95% of Laotian coffee is grown, altitudes reach 1,350 masl. The potential for expanding production of specialty coffee in Laos is so great that Covoya partners are planting more coffee on the Bolaven Plateau. Numerous rivers and creeks of every size cross the plateau heading west and eventually to the Mekong river.
