Coffee Overview
Notorious PNG is a bold and expressive blend combining the syrupy sweetness and structure of Papua New Guinea with the fruit richness of Peru. Built around a 70% base of Virgin Mountain AX1 from PNG and layered with 30% Peru coffee from Cajamarca, this roast delivers a comforting, dessert-like profile with standout sweetness and depth.
The Papua New Guinea component comes from the Eastern Highlands, where most coffee is cultivated by smallholder farmers on traditional “coffee gardens” of one to two hectares. Coffee trees are commonly inter-planted with shade species such as Casuarina and Albizia, helping create healthy, fertile growing conditions.
The Peruvian component is sourced from the Chirinos district of San Ignacio in Cajamarca, one of northern Peru’s best-known coffee regions. High altitudes, rich soils, and warm jungle climates provide ideal conditions for producing sweet, vibrant coffees.
Farm / Processing
The PNG lot is produced by various villages in the remote Nori Kori Valley near Kainantu, where coffee grows along forest fringes and fertile mountain slopes above 1,600 metres. Fully washed processing gives the cup structure, clarity, and a smooth clean finish.
The Peru component is grown by Jose Arce Diaz and naturally processed at Chacra Coffee Company, intensifying sweetness, body, and dried fruit character.
Together these two coffees create a balanced and indulgent cup with notes of rich chocolate orange, sticky dates, rounded sweetness, and a lingering finish.
