The town of Pakxong is a highland area with a great climate for coffee cultivation, making it an important coffee growing region and the coffee capital of Laos. When visiting Pakxong, you must try Pakxong coffee. I divide it into two types: modern coffee like espresso and traditional Pakxong coffee.

When the car enters Pakxong area, you will smell Pakxong coffee drying along the roadside everywhere, creating a true coffee town atmosphere. Upon arriving in town, look to the right (15 10 39.33 N, 106 13 58.212 E) where there is a coffee shop owned by a Dutch person who roasts coffee beans all day. Sometimes he also grinds the coffee beans. This shop makes everything by themselves and you can see every step done by the owner. The coffee here is served hot without anything added, tasting slightly sweet, which mr.hotsia
The coffee machine here is imported from abroad but the coffee price is not expensive like the machine. Only 20 baht per cup. Watch the clip below to see how the coffee is made. The Pakxong coffee that Lao people like to drink is traditional Lao coffee, similar to Thai traditional coffee. It uses brewed filtered coffee which is roasted, ground, and mixed with sugar. When drinking, they use a coffee bag to brew. Lao people drink it very strong, both iced and hot. Watch me taste Pakxong coffee in Pakse here.
What I like is the hot traditional Lao coffee without adding anything; it’s already fragrant and delicious. The photos and clips in this story focus on fresh coffee sold at the shop in Pakxong. If anyone is interested in visiting Pakxong and trying this shop, from Bangkok take a bus to Ubon Province, then from Ubon Bus Station take a bus to Pakse. mr.hotsia December 2010 mr.hotsia recommends hotels in Pakxong. Pakxong coffee is the most fragrant and delicious. Let’s grind coffee beans in Pakxong :) 15 10 39.33 N, 106 13 58.212 E You can check the photo location on the globe at
