Blind Assessment
Delicate, complex, sweetly pungent. Lemongrass, jasmine, caramel, frankincense, apricot in aroma and cup. Crisp, lightly juicy acidity; silky, slightly grainy mouthfeel. The richly drying finish consolidates around apricot and lemongrass.
Notes
Produced by the Kahento family from trees of the Typica and Arusha varieties of Arabica. The high mountain valleys of central Papua New Guinea offer some of the world’s most favorable terroirs for production of fine coffee, although the rugged terrain presents daunting transportation and infrastructure challenges. Founded in 2015, the Greater Goods mission is to enrich the lives of coffee-drinkers through passion, creativity, innovation and commitment to the consistency of the specialty coffee the company roasts and to the local causes supported with its proceeds.

Bottom Line
A crisply sweet coffee driven by stone fruit and bright herb notes.
