Decaf Papua New Guinea – Paradise Mountain 250g

The coffees used in this blend are selected from the Eastern Highlands. The smallholder farmers producing these coffees in the form of parchment have developed and perfected their technique to produce a clean and balanced product over generations, picking only the ripest cherries most suitable for this quality. This parchment is sun-dried to under twelve percent moisture content and, occasionally, may require some mechanical drying at the processing mill. Processing the dried parchment into green beans occurs at selected processing mills or at the central processing mill in Goroka in the Eastern Highlands Province of our sister company in Papua New Guinea. The green beans are then screened and sorted to meet this grade’s specifications.

To preserve quality, the coffees remain in the highlands, where the climate is far less humid. Hence, when the time of departure comes, the coffees are transported approximately two hundred miles by road to the port city of Lae, just in time to meet the vessel schedules for the coffees to be shipped out into the world.
