Papua New Guinea - okapa roses

Coffee has been grown in Papua New Guinea since the 1920s, but the country's remote mountains and thousands of smallholder farmers have made it one of specialty coffee's best-kept secrets.

This lot comes from around 1,500 producers in the Eastern Highlands, where ripe cherries are delivered to the Outspan 4 Mile wet mill. By processing everything centrally, the team can carefully control quality while helping smallholder farmers access international specialty markets.

This washed lot is vibrant and expressive: full-bodied cacao, soft vanilla sweetness and a smooth floral finish.
