Guinea
Papua New Guinea (PNG)
coffees are a cup of funky wildness, like the island itself.
These coffees have a bright and delicate acidity of a malic acid
- apple wineyness that sets them apart from the other Southeast
Asian Archipelago coffees of the earthier Sumatran and
Sulawesian variety.
You might compare
PNGs to brighter Javas, but there are distinct differences
between the two cups. PNGs tend to come off as more delicate,
refined, and lighter body than washed Javas.
Papua New Guinea is
most definitely a unique origin you must try, and is an
excellent origin for certified organic coffee!
