This coffee comes to us from the Kindeng Dry Mill, located in the Jikawa province
of Papua New Guinea. It is a blend of coffee purchased in cherry from about 1500
multiple smallholders located in the Kindeng and Arufa municipalities. The average
farm size of producers in this area is about 1-2 hectares, and the soil is generally
sandy loam and loamy clay. After cherries are received at the mill, they are
processed accordingly and dried on raised beds and canvasses. They are moved
multiple times a day throughout the average 1-month drying process to ensure an
even and uniform average moisture content across the lot. Once the coffee is
adequately dried, it is placed into bags, stored in a cool and dry warehouse, hulled,
milled, and prepped for export.
