New Guinea Papua Kimel  - $11.50/LB.
Full City+ roast (dark). Medium to full body. A sophisticated complete cup. It’s lively yet has the smooth body of a great Indonesian. Let the bold, syrupy body wash over your palette while the subtle chocolate and cherry fruit notes provide a lively and satisfying finish. With a medium to dark roast it’s a cup that’s hard to ignore. New Guinea occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea. It’s one of the most beautiful and diverse countries on earth, with over 850 indigenous languages and traditional cultures. It is also one of the most rural and least explored, with only 18% of it’s people living in urban centers. Most often, because of insufficient road conditions, coffee farmers haul the cherries out on their backs and bring them to the mill where they are processed for export. Farm sizes range from one to two acre plots to large plantations. The Kimel mill sources some of the cleanest coffee in all of Papua New Guinea. After one try you'll love it as much as we do.
