Papua New Guinea – Nebilyer Valley – Kuta Mill – Peaberry

Low Stock Blowout! 6 Pounds Left
Regular Price $7.30/lb

Great from light to dark, definitely the most “spicy” of all the Papua New Guinea’s. The cup is fuller bodied and a bit creamier, lower acidity and rich. At lighter roasts, a little acidity can be found which brings small notes of nutty, caramel and floral tones but will have some pretty powerful black tea like spice notes almost similar to an African. Anything even into the medium roast range is pretty chocolaty and smooth with just a pinch of a spice note. Darker roasts get a bit fuller bodied and roasty with some nice smoky accents.

Original price was: $7.30.Current price is: $5.95.

Description

Papua New Guinea Nebilyer Valley Peaberry is sourced from family owned farms located in the Nebilyer Valley within Tambul-Nebilyer District, Papua New Guinea. Each producer cultivates coffee on 1 to 2 hectares of land. The coffee is fully washed and sun dried at the Kuta mill, which has been in operation for over 40 years. The Kuta mill operates between the Ulga and Kolga tribes and has become a place of common ground for producers who have traditionally been in conflict because of tribal differences.  The mill owner, Brian Leahy, makes a bonus payment after the harvest to farmers who consistently deliver quality cherries.

Jon with Brian LeahyI met Brian at the Mount Hagen club on my adventures, a night I will never forget. This guy was one of the most knowledgeable coffee people I met on my journeys. Lots of smart coffee folk in PNG but many have trouble sticking with it after finding success. A very different life and culture growing coffee in PNG and working with the tribes. He had previously managed Kimel Estate and now runs his own mill. This is one of his top lots, wonderful and differentiates itself nicely from the estate coffees.

Tasting Notes:  Great from light to dark, definitely the most “spicy” of all the Papua New Guinea’s. The cup is fuller bodied and a bit creamier, lower acidity and rich. At lighter roasts, a little acidity can be found which brings small notes of nutty, caramel and floral tones but will have some pretty powerful black tea like spice notes almost similar to an African. Anything even into the medium roast range is pretty chocolaty and smooth with just a pinch of a spice note. Darker roasts get a bit fuller bodied and roasty with some nice smoky accents.

Roasting Notes: Easy to roast, a nice processing batch. Roasts fairly even and is tasty at a little fuller roast points. For a milder everyday drinker, a nice stronger medium roast (a little before 2nd crack) is good. Darker roasts (into 2nd crack) get  bolder and a little more semi-sweet chocolaty but the roasty notes compliment the cup and darker roast fans will love it.
