About the Coffee
This is an Eastern Highlands province coffee, which is where the best Papua New Guinea coffee tends to comes from. The region is locally known as Oceania. This is a microlot that was handpicked by the farm owner and set aside to be sold at a premium. Microlots are largely unheard of out of Papua New Guinea before now, so this was an exciting new direction for coffee being exported from the island.
The light roasts are fruity and savory -- mango, pear. Really buttery. Not herbal or tomato in this one, but very much butter.
