96B Liberica Project
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
96B says it was founded in 2016 and began seeking and experimenting with Liberica that year. Rogue Wave documents the exact 2026 Hướng Hóa Liberica lot and says the focused regional Liberica Project took shape in 2023 with farming partners.
Challenges
The project operates in a remote location with lower elevations that historically led to the coffee being undervalued or mislabeled as low-quality Arabica. Farmers also face the challenge of managing trees that were traditionally planted as windbreaks rather than as a primary commercial crop.
Innovations
For the exact Rogue Wave release, 96B applied anaerobic natural processing to old French-era Liberica material sourced from Hướng Hóa.
Research sources & verification
These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
