The Story Behind the Cup

We’re starting the year with a vibrant and expressive offering from Papua New Guinea’s Western Highlands. Sourced from the Kindeng Mill, this natural-process microlot brings together cherries from over 1,500 smallholder producers, most of whom farm small plots known locally as “gardens.” These producers grow coffee under shade alongside food crops, using traditional methods passed down through generations.

This lot comprises Arusha, Bourbon, and Typica varietals grown at elevations between 1520 and 1770 MASL. The extended natural drying process takes 3 to 4 weeks and involves constant hand-turning of cherries to ensure even drying and complex flavour development. In the cup, expect a layered profile of stewed mandarin, jammy papaya, and toffee, complemented by a creamy mouthfeel and a winey, fruit-driven acidity. A beautifully textured and flavourful start to the year.

What Is Special About Specialty Estate Coffee?

As the name suggests, Yahava’s Specialty Estate Coffee is a limited release of new coffees we have recently discovered. Yahava source these micro-lot coffees in small quantities and only when available. We scour the entirety of the world's coffee-belt for these gems.

Can I Get Another Batch Of Specialty Estate Coffee?

Depending on availability, you may be able to get another bag of a Specialty Estate Coffee before the end of the month, but you will need to be quick. Because they are 'monthly' limited-edition coffee beans, we suggest ordering as soon as you’ve taken a liking to the roast.

Will You Be Selling These Coffee Beans Again Or Are They Only A One-Time Thing?

At Yahava, we welcome your feedback, and if we hear of a coffee that is popular, we will try to secure more. This is not always possible because of the size of the harvests and our ability to secure more. The very nature of a micro-lot Speciality Estate Coffee makes it special and very difficult to obtain.
