This Arabica lot from Papua New Guinea is grown in the central highlands at an altitude of 1200 to 1500 meters. The Typica variety cherries are hand-picked and processed using an anaerobic natural method, involving 48 hours of fermentation in airtight bags followed by 40 to 45 days of sun-drying on raised beds. This process is designed to emphasize fruit-driven character and aromatic intensity, resulting in a coffee with a heavy body and a savory-sweet flavor profile.
