Papua New Guinean — Purosa
In March 2005 the 2,600 growers of this collective were accepted into the global Fairtrade organisation and their cooperative is managed by Coffee Connections.
The Eastern Highlands Province was first developed as an important coffee region in the early 1980’s, when seedlings from the Arabica coffee species Typica, Bourbon and Arusha were planted extensively in villages and in the two main plantations making up the Purosa group. The Purosa area has been certified organic for coffee since 1991. The rich volcanic soil, plentiful rainfall and sunlight provide excellent growing conditions for this coffee.
