Description
Coffee is Papua New Guinea's second largest agricultural export. The majority of the coffee is grown in the highlands, covering a total of 210,000 acres of ground. Small farmers tend to grow the coffee alongside other crops and the product is mostly certified as 'organic coffee'.
Papua New Guinea produces coffees that are revered for their fascinating acidity and variety. Plus, the island itself is notable for its extraordinary, mountainous topography and the incredible cultural diversity of its thousands of indigenous groups.
Historical changes in infrastructure have reduced the number of centralized coffee plantations in Papua New Guinea. Today, many of its plantations are collections of “coffee gardens”— small plots of as few as 20 plants that are grown alongside subsistence crops. With new processing methods being introduced, these already-incredible coffees continue to increase in quality and consistency.
The X grade means that the largest and smallest beans were left out of the sample for greater uniformity. With increased introduction of modern processing methods, these already incredible coffees continue to grow in quality and consistency.
