Flavor Description
This natural lot from the Eastern Highlands shows that PNG is not only about woodiness and caramel. It can also deliver beautiful fruit layers. Expect dried strawberry, plum, raisin, and brown-sugar sweetness, with a lightly winey finish. The cup is full but still reasonably clean.
Why It’s Popular
Compared with standard washed PNG lots, naturals like this are easier to remember for drinkers who enjoy sweetness and fruit-forward cups, giving PNG a more distinctive market identity.
Brewing Notes
- Pour Over: Recommended water temperature 90–91°C, ratio 1:15 to 1:16
- Iced Pour Over: Also performs well, making the dried-fruit sweetness even more obvious
