{"product_id":"papua-new-guinea","title":"Papua New Guinea","description":"\u003cp\u003ePapua New Guinea is specialty coffee's best-kept secret. Grown in the remote highlands of the Wahgi Valley and the Eastern Highlands, PNG coffee has a character that's genuinely unlike anything else in our lineup — bright, fruity, and complex in a way that draws comparisons to the best East African coffees, but with an earthy depth that's uniquely its own. This is the cup that surprises people who approach it without expectations. And then orders it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Carry This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePNG's Arabica varieties are descended from Jamaican Blue Mountain and Typica plants introduced in the 1920s, which have adapted over a century to the specific conditions of the PNG highlands. Grown at elevations between 1,500 and 2,000 meters in rich volcanic soil by smallholder farmers — many in areas accessible only by foot or small aircraft — this is coffee with a story as distinctive as its flavor. We carry it because no other origin tastes quite like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFlavor Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBright, fruity acidity\u003c\/strong\u003e — lively and complex, reminiscent of the best East African coffees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTropical fruit notes\u003c\/strong\u003e — mango, papaya, and citrus brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEarthy depth\u003c\/strong\u003e — a subtle complexity that grounds the brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium body\u003c\/strong\u003e — substantial but not heavy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClean, complex finish\u003c\/strong\u003e — fruit and acidity linger beautifully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Process\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFully washed — the fruit is removed before drying, producing a clean cup that highlights the bean's natural acidity and tropical fruit character with clarity and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle origin specialty Arabica coffee, highlands of Papua New Guinea (Wahgi Valley and Eastern Highlands).

Kenya is bolder and more wine-like, with blackcurrant and citrus intensity. PNG is slightly more tropical and earthy, with mango and papaya notes. Both are exceptional — PNG is the more exotic and less-explored of the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes PNG coffee genetically unique?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePNG's Arabica varieties descend from Jamaican Blue Mountain and Typica plants introduced in the 1920s. Over a century of adaptation to the specific conditions of the PNG highlands has produced a flavor profile found nowhere else on earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it good for black coffee drinkers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — this is a black coffee drinker's origin. The fruit complexity and bright acidity are best experienced without milk, which would mask the notes that make PNG distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat roast level is this?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMedium. Roasted to preserve the delicate fruit and acidity that make Papua New Guinea exceptional. A darker roast would replace those notes with roast character — and that would be a waste of what this bean can do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/single-origin\"\u003eExplore our full single origin lineup\u003c\/a\u003e — or \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/coffee\"\u003ebrowse all coffees\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milestone Brewed Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Coarse \/ 12oz","offer_id":44080872030244,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-CO-NA-12OZ","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse \/ 1 LB","offer_id":44080872063012,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-CO-NA-1LB","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse \/ 2 LB","offer_id":44080872095780,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-CO-NA-2LB","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse \/ 5 LB","offer_id":44080872128548,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-CO-NA-5LB","price":121.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse \/ 12 LB","offer_id":44080872161316,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-CO-NA-12LB","price":243.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso \/ 12oz","offer_id":44080872194084,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ES-NA-12OZ","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso \/ 1 LB","offer_id":44080872226852,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ES-NA-1LB","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso \/ 2 LB","offer_id":44080872259620,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ES-NA-2LB","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso \/ 5 LB","offer_id":44080872292388,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ES-NA-5LB","price":121.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso \/ 12 LB","offer_id":44080872325156,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ES-NA-12LB","price":243.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard \/ 12oz","offer_id":44080872357924,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ST-NA-12OZ","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard \/ 1 LB","offer_id":44080872390692,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ST-NA-1LB","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard \/ 2 LB","offer_id":44080872423460,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ST-NA-2LB","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard \/ 5 LB","offer_id":44080872456228,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ST-NA-5LB","price":121.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard \/ 12 LB","offer_id":44080872488996,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-ST-NA-12LB","price":243.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 12oz","offer_id":44080872521764,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-WH-NA-12OZ","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 1 LB","offer_id":44080872554532,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-WH-NA-1LB","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 2 LB","offer_id":44080872587300,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-WH-NA-2LB","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 5 LB","offer_id":44080872620068,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-WH-NA-5LB","price":121.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 12 LB","offer_id":44080872652836,"sku":"TVARPAPUA NEW GUINEA-WH-NA-12LB","price":243.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/4946\/0772\/files\/papua-new-guinea-medium-roast.png?v=1779136220","url":"https:\/\/milestonebrewedcoffee.com\/products\/papua-new-guinea","provider":"Milestone Brewed Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
