The Lamari blend is named for the Lamari River that flows through the Eastern Highlands.
 
This Lamari lot is IMPACT verified. IMPACT is Sucafina's Responsible Sourcing Program and provides assurance that coffees are produced in environmentally and socially sustainable ways. IMPACT verified coffees are deforestation-free and contribute to the wellbeing of workers. The remarkable quality of this coffee is a direct result of years of extension services and work with smallholder producer groups on improving picking, pulping, sorting, fermentation and drying practices.Smallholders grow, process and dry their coffee before delivering it as parchment to a collection station at our partner mill. We source the best quality lots, which are separated specifically for us before being hulled, graded and prepared for export.
 
Papua New Guinea (PNG) is a relative newcomer to the specialty coffee scene. The remote locations of the nation’s smallholders—who produce 85% of total coffee in the country—combined with historically-poor infrastructure has made the transition to specialty difficult. Nonetheless, the country is working towards innovative solutions that will hopefully lead to better quality coffee and improved livelihoods for the nation’s smallholder coffee producers.
