Most of Papua New Guinea’s coffee doesn’t come from large estates. Instead, it’s produced by thousands of smallholder farmers who grow coffee in small “coffee gardens” alongside their family crops, often on no more than an acre or two. Coffee here is closely tied to both community and land.
Our Kunjin lot comes from smallholder producers in the Western Highlands. The coffee is grown at high elevation, where cooler temperatures help develop sweetness and a bright, clean acidity. Farmers hand-pick ripe cherries and bring them to central washing stations, where the coffee is processed using the washed method to maintain a clean, balanced cup.
This lot is composed mostly of Arusha, Bourbon, and Typica. Expect notes of milk chocolate, citrus, and bright acidity.
