About
Who we are
Digital Forest is the master brand; ERIYO COFFEE is its coffee brand. What we are, where we are, and how to reach a person.
The short version
Digital Forest began in 2016 in Xizhou, a Bai village on the shore of Erhai Lake in Yunnan, as a small coffee shop. Since then we have run cafés across Dali and Changsha, a roastery and a craft workshop, and we publish the work of our makers. ERIYO COFFEE is the brand most people meet first. We sell coffee, handcraft and distant-living goods — made to order, by named real makers.
- Coffee — Whole beans, drip bags and the cups we actually use in the stores.
- Handcraft — Indigo, stoneware and silver from named artisans. Made to order, never stockpiled.
- Distant living — Notebooks, enamel mugs and postcards for the people who work from wherever the light is good.

Why: the registered company name and unified social credit code have not passed our publication review, and we do not publish company-identity details we cannot verify.

What we do not claim
- · No customer reviews or star ratings — we have no real review data yet, so we show none rather than invent any.
- · No partner or press logos — we have not earned verifiable ones yet.
- · No shipping times, returns or warranty terms are promised while online checkout is closed.
Showing nothing here is deliberate. A shop that invents reviews is not trustworthy; a shop that states plainly what it does not have yet is.
