Papua New Guinea Korgua Peaberry

Nebilyer Valley is a growing region in the Western Highlands next to Waghi Valley. The mill processing this coffee is called Korgua, and both the both the mill and co-op are overseen by the same family so that the quality can be controlled. 

The beans are largely made up of the heirloom Bourbon and Typica varietals grown at 4,000+ feet above sea level. 

This one is nice as a light or dark roast. In a really light roast, there is both herbal and tropical flavors. Some passion fruit and mango with slight brothiness. In really dark roasts, like a Sumatra roast curve, it's smoky and bold without tasting burnt at all. It holds up really well to the high heat and has almost a mineral flavor and sweetness.
