Every Coffee Has A Story

This coffee has a unique story from other offerings from PNG: It is the initiative of Moses Venapo, an entrepreneurial producer in the Eastern Highlands, who wanted to offer local smallholders better access to higher market prices as well as a higher-traceability option. While most coffee in Kabiufa is delivered in parchment in small quantities to roadside delivery points, Moses established a cherry-buying facility as well as installed a wet mill in his back yard in order to have more control over the purchasing and processing. The coffee is bought in cherry at a significant premium to the general market, and sorted carefully, providing farmers with feedback about best practices in picking.

This is a new, small project that so far serves around 50 smallholders within Moses' village and the neighboring villages, but we see a lot of promise based on the cup quality and ingenuity of the venture.

Words of Wisdom

Quick Answers!

Are these coffees flavored?

Nope! Coffee is super complex and can be affected by alot of different things. Tasting notes refer to the subtle reference to flavors that deviate from your standard idea of coffee. For example, you may taste a slight sweetness- a bit like strawberry.

I put milk in my coffee. Any suggestions?

Stop that! Just kidding.

If you enjoy your coffee with a bit of milk or creamer, we suggest choosing a darker roast or a coffee with a heavier body. Typically, lighter roasts will not be able to handle milk. In other words, you will lose the coffee-ness if you put milk in a light roast.

What happened to that one coffee that I liked?!

Coffee is a plant! That means that crops can change from season to season. We regularly sample and roast new coffees to make sure we have the highest quality bean for your cup! To us, we would rather retire "McJoeJoe's Roast" if the beans have reached the end of their life. If you are missing your old favorite roast, reach out to us and we can help you find your new favorite!
