Origin: Simbu and Morobe, eastern PNG Growing altitude: 1600-1850 m Producer: Smallholders Varieties: Typica, Bourbon (washed) Harvested: 2023 Less than 1% of all coffee grown on our planet comes from Papua New Guinea, despite the fact that the coffee industry employs half the population.
Both the land and the climate are tailor-made for growing coffee.
What makes PNG special is that the small farmers, who are almost always behind the coffee (there are only a few larger plantations), do more of the work than usual before passing on the coffee beans.
After harvesting, they wash off the skin and pulp of the berries themselves and start the drying process.
After a week or so, the coffee winds its way down to various processing plants, in this case in Simbu and Morobe in the eastern provinces, where the beans are sorted and classified.
Here you enjoy the highest classification Plantation A 17+.
These are the largest and finest beans that produce the smoothest results in our roasting machine.
After all the love that has been given to the beans, the result is also accordingly.
We primarily roast this raw coffee a little darker, but both for filter and espresso.
It is round, fine and very gentle with low acidity, plenty of dark chocolate (bordering on cocoa), slight nuttiness in the form of pistachio, nutmeg and walnut.
In the long, smooth aftertaste, the baked and sweet lemon is present all the way.
This green coffee arrived at the roastery on March 21 and is from the 2023 harvest.
