About FABB

Who knew a passion for fashion would lead into the world of coffee? That’s what happened in 1995, when FABB Fashion Cafe – a fashion boutique, coffee shop, and internet cafe rolled into one – opened its doors for the first coffee academy in Thailand.

We here at FABB don’t work in half-measures, so we ensured that our coffee institution can hold its own amongst the world’s best. We are a coffee educator certified by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) and Coffee Consulate (Germany). We are also a green bean trader and have excellent connections with professional coffee farmers, adopting Fair Trade and Organic Growing rules. We have the latest coffee equipment, machines, and accessories as well. We’ve also established a fine network with world-class coffeeologists.

That’s not all. With the establishment of FABB Academy of Coffee, it is clear we’re committed about spreading the wonders of coffee all over the globe, not just in Thailand. We want to inspire a new coffee culture and promote global interest in the art and business of coffee. We don’t see ourselves as riding the coffee bandwagon; in our vision, we’re one of those driving it!

At FABB Academy of Coffee, you don’t just love and learn about coffee more – you become one of our companions and fellow advocates in our global quest for coffee excellence. The world of coffee will never be the same again!

About the Founder

Born in Thailand, I started my journey by running a fashion house in Bangkok. This enabled me to travel to a wide range of places. One day, I found myself in Florence, Italy. I came across a charming roastery & cafe. It was there that I tasted the most delectable coffee in my life. Right at that moment, I decided that I want to design, build, and operate a coffee shop of my own.

Today, I am running the FABB Academy of Coffee. We bring invaluable knowledge and skills training to baristas and coffee lovers in Thailand. We provide top-caliber facilities and equipment for all of our students. The FABBAOC project is at the forefront of developing, improving, and innovating the coffee scene in Thailand. Learn farming, brewing, roasting, cupping, pouring, and more with us!

“Making coffee is like playing jazz. Learning and practicing makes improvisation best.”
