    • History of coffee in Papua New Guinea

      Papua New Guinea’s coffee industry began with Jamaican Blue Mountain seeds, which were introduced to the island in the early 20th century. Large-scale production soon followed, making coffee one of PNG’s top export products. Initially dominated by plantation farming, the industry gradually shifted to smallholder farms due to changes in colonial administration.

      While production faced turbulence throughout the 20th century, it surged in the 1970s, partly due to a decline in Brazilian output. Originally focused on robusta, PNG began cultivating more arabica varietals after 1928, helping to shape its reputation for high-quality specialty coffee. Today, despite ongoing infrastructure challenges, PNG remains a respected supplier in the global coffee trade.

    • When is the best time to source coffee from Papua New Guinea?

      If you are looking to procure specialty coffee beans from Papua New Guinea, it is best to begin sourcing a few months before the main harvest season begins in May. Alternatively, there is a smaller, early harvest between January and February, which may offer some more convenience depending on your needs. You can then expect your shipments to commence halfway through either of these seasons.

    • How to buy and import coffee from Papua New Guinea?

      Start by researching coffee associations and cooperatives, with the Coffee Industry Corporation (CIC) being a key resource for connecting with producers across PNG. Exploring different farms and regions will help you identify high-quality specialty lots that suit your needs.

      Once you’ve shortlisted potential suppliers, reach out directly to learn more about their practices. If possible, arrange a visit or virtual tour to get a better understanding of their operations.

      When you're ready to proceed, organise shipments and ensure that all paperwork and certifications are correct and up to date to avoid any delay

    • What does Papua New Guinea coffee taste like?

      High quality specialty coffee from Papua New Guinea will offer a cup of medium acidity, complimented by smooth sweet flavours. You can expect tasting notes to be reminiscent of nuts, toffee, spices, chocolate, caramel, complimented by a citrus fruitiness.
