The history, culture, stories and allusions of the holy boutique beans of the Chilmel Manor in Papua New Guinea

PNG's coffee production is not very high, its coffee beans are carefully washed Arabica beans. Generally washed coffee beans are full of bright fruit aromas, but do not have a strong acidity. It is characterized by a silky soft taste and excellent aroma, moderate acidity, is a relatively rare high-alcohol and medium-acidity coffee variety.

In recent years, Papua New Guinea Coffee began to bring its own unique high-quality washed Arabica beans, on behalf of Oceania to enter the ranks of the world specialtycoffee. The coffee style of Papua New Guinea has the characteristics of full particles, moderate acidity and mellow taste.

Papua New Guinea is an island country in Oceania. In Malay, "Papua" means "curly hair". It is said that in 1545, the explorer Retes arrived on the island and found that most of the people's hair on the island was curly, that is, the island was called "the island of curly hair", so the name was handed down. Papua New Guinea in the east of Indonesia, is a standard island climate, located between the equator and 10 degrees south latitude, with tropical rain forest volcanic rocks and plateau topography, between 1200 and 2500 meters above sea level, is a paradise for growing coffee.

□ Papua New Guinea, located in the east of Indonesia, is a standard island climate, located between the equator and 10 degrees south latitude, with tropical rain forest volcanic rocks and plateau topography, between 1200 and 2500 meters above sea level, is a paradise for growing coffee. The local output is small. 85% of the total output is produced by the small garden cultivation system, and they will join the local cooperatives to share the cooperative processing equipment. Coffee is the second largest export of agricultural products in Pakistan, which shows the importance of the coffee industry to the country. Because the variety of coffee is different from that of Indonesia, and the altitude is higher than that of Sumatra, coupled with the use of water washing treatment, the regional flavor of Pakistani coffee is very different from that of Indonesia, but has bright, sweet and sour, flower and fruit aromas.

Founded in 1974 by Australian businessman Bobby Bobby Gibbs, Chimere Manor is named after the adjacent river (Kimel River) and now houses 432 employees, mainly from the Opais tribe. Although the owner is a foreigner, local farmers are responsible for coffee production and manor management. The manor also provides sound educational institutions and medical facilities. The coffee trees in the manor are cultivated in shade, which can not only adjust the temperature but also reduce excessive sunshine, and local farmers also adopt practices that do not burden the environment as far as possible, such as recycling of water conservancy resources and residual berries as fertilizer. There are a wide range of planting products in the manor, from the traditional Tibica and bourbon to the rare Blue Mountain species, making the coffee here more resistant to various diseases and insect pests and natural disasters, stabilizing the quality and bringing more elements to the coffee flavor.

New Guinea Islands 、 Southern . Papua New Guinea is located in the east of the Indonesian archipelago.

Mainly in Papua New Guinea, there are large manors / farms and small farmers planting patterns, growing a variety of coffee varieties.

The coffee flavor of Papua New Guinea is very different from that of other Asian regions such as Indonesia, South Asia, India or the Pacific.

The local yield is small, and about 85% of the total coffee is produced by the garden cultivation system of small farmers. Small farmers join local cooperatives and share their processing equipment. Coffee is Pakistan's second largest export of agricultural products, which shows the importance of coffee industry to Pakistan's economy. Because the variety of coffee is different from that of Indonesia, and the altitude is higher than Sumatra, coupled with the use of water washing treatment, the regional taste of PNG coffee is different from Indonesia's muggy and low flavor, but has bright, sweet and sour, flower and fruit aromas, similar to the flavor of South America.

Papua New Guinea has a detached and primitive natural environment and its land is vast and fertile. Its unique volcanic rock soil and abundant rainfall create excellent natural conditions for the growth of coffee. The top coffee beans in Papua New Guinea are as beautiful and precious as the country's national bird of paradise.

Large estates / farms (plantation) usually have their own washing plants, and smaller individual coffee farmers are more likely to control the quality and flavor of their output. Located in the Wiki Valley of the western plateau of Papua New Guinea near the kimel Valley, Chimere Manor, like many large farms / estates, has its own washing plant, but it is in fact an estate owned by many independent small coffee farmers of the surrounding Opais people and, in a sense, a private cooperative. Due to the excellent growth conditions and the stable quality control process of the treatment plant, the coffee produced has an active sense of brightness and retains a considerable degree of flavor uniqueness of Papua New Guinea coffee.

Another special feature is that the variety of coffee planted by Kimmel cannot even be counted with one hand: Typica, Arusha, BlueMountain, MundoNovo, Catimor, Caturra. Or even more-in fact, just as they don't put eggs in the same basket, most farmers actually grow different varieties to avoid the risk that a particular variety will fail to grow or produce less than expected.

Now I would like to introduce PB's full name Peaberry, which is what we often call round beans. Usually there are two seeds in a coffee fruit, that is, our common coffee beans, one side is curved, the other is flat, similar to peanut shape, we call it flat beans; round beans are only one coffee bean in a coffee fruit, and the shape of the bean is oval, accounting for very little in the fruit of the whole coffee tree. Round beans are selected artificially, and the overall quality is guaranteed, so it is not surprising that they taste good.
