Papua New Guinea Arufa AX
In the shadow of Mount Bangeta, cosied between winding waterways essential for distributing volcanic nutrients, the smallholder farmers of Arufa have been working their magic. These farmers, in the fertile, remote, and high altitude Jiwaka Province, typically tend to just one or two hectares of land each, where they grow food crops in amongst the coffee. During the September-November harvest, ripe cherries are selectively hand picked and dried on raised beds. We’re getting intense liquorice notes from this lot, with blackberry fruitiness, and subtle hints of black tea.

About Papua New Guinea
With over 800 languages spoken by its population of almost 9 million, Papua New Guinea, on the eastern edge of the Indonesian archipelago, is a land of tribes, secluded from the world. The altitude and fertile soils of the main coffee growing regions of the Eastern and Western Highlands, and Simbu Province, offer fantastic potential for high quality coffee, sparking renewed interest in farming and export of specialty coffee.

Coffees from Papua New Guinea are known for their incredible complexity and sweetness.
