This is smooth coffee. This is interesting coffee. This is beautiful coffee. Papua New Guinea can produce some of the most wonderful and unique coffees anywhere. This one’s vegetal, red bell pepper flavors mingle in a heavy, rustic sweetness and herbaceous bright tones – like the heady resinous quality of fresh cut rosemary. It doesn’t overpower though, it glides onto your palette, easing it’s complexity towards you… pauses, then sparkles, dangling its brightness in the finish like the scales of a fish glinting in the long sunbeams of winter morning light.

This coffee was sorted and processed with extra careful consideration, making the cup quality near perfectly clean. Especially considering that it’s a Sumatran coffee. Dark, bold and intense, with a lot of body making it the perfect coffee for the snowstorms that have been blowing into Portland recently. It’s comfort coffee that will rock you to sleep. Complex, bittersweet, even spicy at times, enrobed with slightly herbal tinglings.
I am putting the finishing touches on an email to begin offering limited selections of coffee for order and delivery. Stay tuned, it should be out early next week. If you want to receive the email, join the mailing list above.
