Papua New Guinea's mountainous terrain with amazingly fertile volcanic soil is excellent for growing rich, vibrant Arabica coffee but not very good for transporting it. As a result, many remote villages and smallholder coffee farms that make up 85% of PNG's coffee production are only reachable by foot or light aircraft, which is why air travel is crucial to get things moving.
All PNG green coffee from Simbai is transported via plane. For Simbai farmers to access the supply chain, they must bring their coffee to an airstrip. It’s not easy – some farmers have a day’s journey from their farm to the airfields. Once the coffee arrives, it’s weighed in parchment, recorded, and stored in our importers warehouses.

We give our coffees 3 months for best flavor. If you would like to know when it was roasted, it is 3 months before the "best by" date.
