Description

Grown by smallholder families in the remote Henganofi District of Papua New Guinea's Eastern Highlands, where the sandy loam soils of the Doti Wara River valley and a cool climate produce clean, expressive coffee. Farms are typically under one hectare, and cherries are hand picked, pulped and sun dried before milling. The coffee takes its name from Mrs. Moanti Ise, who built the buying network that connects these remote farms to market. It opens with an inviting berry aroma over an earthy base, and the cup is rich and chocolaty with caramel, apricot, orange and a soft vanilla sweetness.
