This lot is sourced from 1,500 smallholder farmers partnered with the Outspan 4 Mile wetmill in Goroka. These farmers cultivate the typica and mundo novo varieties at altitudes up to 1,500masl. The mill buys ripe cherries and processes them centrally to ensure complete control of cherry selection and processing.
The coffee is harvested by selecting only the cherries that have reached perfect ripeness. The beans are then depulped manually using a pulping machine. Afterward, they are placed in a container with water for an initial separation, removing any beans that float. The coffee is transferred to an open tank to ferment for about 12 hours. It is then washed two or three times until all the mucilage is removed. Finally, the beans are dried on patios for around seven days before completing in mechanical dryers.
