Papua New Guinea Arkau

Summary

A washed coffee from producer Jon Boito's 1.5ha farm in the Obura Wonenara district of Papua New Guinea's Eastern Highlands. Grown at 1700-1750m altitude, the lot consists of Arusha, Blue Mountain and Typica varieties. Selective harvesting based on Brix readings of 23-24 ensures optimal cherry maturation, followed by manual hand pulping with high mucilage retention for enhanced floral and fruity notes. The coffee undergoes a 16hr dry fermentation before being washed and dried on raised beds. Flavour notes include orange, plum and apple.
