The Arufa Grade A Natural Process is grown in a remote area of Papua New Guinea in the Arufa and Kindeng regions of the Western Highlands. This area is a large plateau with stony mountains bordering the edges. During colonial times, this area was one of the first planted with coffee, and this continues today.
Coffee in this area is mostly bourbon, Arusha, and blue mountain varieties and grows between 1,520 and 1,770 meters above sea level. Most coffee farmers in Papua New Guinea have less than a hectare of land and operate “coffee gardens” with only a few trees. The family all participate in the harvesting and processing, and they do everything by hand.
Arufa Natural may be named after the region where it grows, but the Kindeng smallholder farmer network produces it. They have been delivering exceptional coffee for more than ten years, and the Arufa Natural results are based on the farmers’ commitment to quality. The cherries are hand-picked and sun-dried for about a month before being hulled to the parchment level. They are then sold to the Kagauga dry mill for further processing.
