  „Coffee labeled New Guinea usually comes fromPapua New Guinea, which occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea. Thesecoffees are grown in peasant patches and small plantations throughout the rugged mountainhighlands. The best New Guinea coffee is estate- or plantation-grown. In general, NewGuinea is a low-key version of the great Indonesian coffees: not as full-bodied as thebest Sumatra, less acidy and aromatic than the best Celebes, but a comfortably rich cup.Coffee marketed as Arona seems to be the currently preferred New Guinea coffee amongspecialty roasters.“

Plantation owners can easily lock up 300-400 hectares, squeezing families into little more than their 50ft square plots. Don't believe the Malthusian population specialists who blame the poor for overpopulation and land degradation.“
