Sigri Farm is located in Papua New Guinea, where the environment is very suitable for coffee growth, about 5200 feet (about 1600 meters) above sea level, the climate is cool and rainy.

"Processing" or "milling" is the way farmers separate the coffee bean from the pulpy fruit around it. The Sigri Estate has been refining its coffee processing method for over fifty years.

Through treatment, workers separate the pulp of coffee berries from seeds (raw coffee beans). Sigri Farm has been using traditional methods to handle coffee for more than 50 years.

Sigri uses a classic processing method: fully-washed and sun-dried. Processing the coffee immediately after harvest ensures a clean flavor in the final cup.

Sigri uses the traditional washing method to treat the coffee, that is, the coffee pulp and seeds are separated by complete washing immediately after picking, and then dried. This treatment ensures the clear and clean taste of sigri coffee.

The beans are washed three times over a 72-hour period. In between washings, they are held in fermentation tanks, which helps to break down the pulp around the bean. Once all the pulp is removed, the beans are soaked one last time in fresh water.

After 72 hours of washing and fermentation, the pulp is gradually separated from the seed. After the pulp is finally separated from the seed, the coffee beans are washed and soaked for the last time.

The beans are spread onto wide patios to dry in the sun. Over the next several days, the beans will be turned over with rakes make sure every last bean is dry. Finally, the coffee is ready to be sorted, shipped, and roasted. The final cup is deep and sweet, with an earthy flavor.

The coffee beans (soaked for the last time) are spread evenly on the drying ground to dry. Over the next few days, beans are often sown to ensure that each bean is completely dried. Beans can then be hand-graded, transported and baked according to the standard. Finally, the sigri in our cup is the sweet coffee with a touch of earthy aroma.
