Limited-volume fermented lots from Papua highlands, graded and documented for export.
Papua's remote highland gardens produce cocoa with a bold, tropical character that stands apart from the established Sulawesi and Sumatra profiles. Volumes are smaller and more seasonal, but every Papua lot we export is cut-tested in Makassar, fully documented, and traceable to the collection network that grew it.

What Papua beans taste like
Papua cocoa tends toward a deeper, more tropical cup with assertive cocoa impact and a distinctive fruit edge that reads clearly in single-origin chocolate. Buyers who already work with Sulawesi or Sumatra often trial Papua when they want a more expressive Indonesian component without leaving a single exporter relationship.
How we source in Papua
We work with established collection networks in Papua's highland growing areas, applying the same intake discipline as our core origins: moisture testing, cut tests, and defect screening before any lot is accepted. Because logistics are more challenging, we consolidate Papua supply on confirmed orders rather than holding large open stock.
Buying Papua beans from us
Papua lots ship from Makassar with the same export documentation as our other origins. Share your specification, destination port, and production window and we will confirm availability, lead time, and incoterms. Pre-shipment samples are available before you commit to a container.
Frequently asked questions
Ordering, samples, shipping, and payment, answered by our export desk.
What is your minimum order quantity?
For fermented grades the minimum is one 20 ft container (about 13 MT). For unfermented Sulawesi and Java beans we can arrange partial loads from 5 MT, and LCL trial lots are available for qualified first-time buyers, subject to consolidation schedules.
Do you provide samples before ordering?
Yes. We courier 500 g – 2 kg samples of current lots, including cut-test photos and moisture readings. Sample costs are credited against your first order.
Which ports and incoterms do you work with?
We ship from Makassar and Surabaya under FOB, CFR, or CIF terms to most major ports. Every shipment includes phytosanitary certificate, fumigation certificate, certificate of origin, and full loading documentation.
What payment terms do you accept?
Standard terms are 30% advance with order confirmation and 70% against copy of bill of lading. Irrevocable LC at sight is accepted for established buyers and larger contracts.
Which certifications can you supply?
Selected lots carry Rainforest Alliance, Organic, Fairtrade, and Halal (BPJPH) certification. Our Makassar processing and export warehousing facility operates under ISO 22000 and HACCP. Certification availability is listed on each product page.
Can you provide third-party inspection and laboratory COAs?
Yes. We can arrange SGS or equivalent pre-shipment inspection at the loading port, and ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory certificates covering moisture, bean count, cut-test appearance, and microbiology on request. Inspection costs are quoted separately and agreed before booking.
Can you run a custom fermentation programme?
Yes, for wholesale buyers. We box-ferment against a written protocol (day count, turning schedule, target cut-test, drying moisture) booked on a named cooperative harvest, starting at one 20 ft container (about 13 MT). Trial containers are available before a season contract. This is a container programme, not single-bag or micro-lot supply.
Do you offer OEM or private-label packing?
Yes. On recurring wholesale contracts we stencil buyer marks, print custom lot codes, and issue packing lists to your bag-mark requirements while keeping our legal entity on the commercial invoice unless otherwise agreed. Minimums stay at our standard wholesale floors. Send artwork and language requirements with your quote request; programme details are on the services page.
