The Deets

Bright natural from Papua New Guinea with baker's chocolate vibes!

This coffee comes from the Kindeng Dry Mill in the Jikawa province in the Waghi Valley in the Western Highlands. The region's mountainous terrain, fertile soil, and regular rainfall make it ideal for coffee cultivation. For this coffee, farmers hand-pick the ripest cherries and take them to the mill, where they are hand-sorted and dried on raised beds for 3-4 weeks. They are rotated several times daily to ensure uniform moisture content. Then, they are placed into bags and stored in a cool space to stabilize before they are hulled, milled, and prepped for export. The result is a complex and crushable coffee with maraschino cherry, plum, brown sugar, and baker's chocolate flavors.

REST IN PEACE

We recommend letting fresh coffee rest to allow the beans to stabilize. This will result in a sweeter, more expressive cup. We rest washed coffees 5–10 days, naturals 10–15 days, and experimentals 15–30 days.
