Context
Sourced from the Western Highlands of Papua New Guinea, this coffee is the result of the collective efforts of smallholder producers working at 1400 masl. The lot features the Typica varietal, a classic cultivar often celebrated for its balanced profile and clean cup quality. Following harvest, the cherries undergo a washed process, a technique typically employed to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean.
Roasted by Press Coffee Roasters, this specific selection presents a nuanced sensory experience characterized by notes of apricot, sweet and creamy butterscotch, and spiced chocolate. While individual profiles vary, those exploring the flavor wheel may find that the combination of high-altitude cultivation and traditional processing creates a distinct cup that bridges the gap between bright fruit tones and rich, dessert-like sweetness. This offering serves as a compelling example of the unique terroir found within the rugged landscapes of the Western Highlands.
