Coffee review

Sigri, the bird of paradise in PNG

Published: 2024-11-03 Author: World Gafei
Last Updated: 2024/11/03, Papua New Guinea is one of the least urbanized countries in the world, with only 18 per cent of its urban population and 85 per cent of its national economy derived from agricultural exports.

But Papua New Guinea produces one of the best quality coffee in the world. The local coffee variety comes from the Blue Mountain Coffee in Jamaica and belongs to Typica.

Papua New Guinea is located on the island of Guinea, bordering Indonesia and Australia to the south.

Although Papua New Guinea is close to Indonesia, the coffee taste is completely not used in Indonesia's Mantenin, Papua New Guinea beans, taste clean, full of flowers and rhyme, completely different from Mantenin's miscellaneous flavor and strong flavor.

The two most popular beans from Papua New Guinea in China are sigri and purosa. Many people are accustomed to calling sigri a bird of paradise, while prosa is Prosa. In fact, these are two kinds of beans from two manors (estate). As for the term "bird of paradise", it is still a bit inappropriate, because in fact, the bird of paradise is the national bird of Papua New Guinea, and there is a "bird of paradise" on its national flag, and sigri's raw bean sack is also printed with a bird of paradise, so it is easy to call this bean "bird of paradise" in China.

As for purosa, which entered the eyes of Chinese people after sigri, there is actually a "bird of paradise" on the sack, but because the word "bird of paradise" already has an owner, purosa is called "Prosa."

This is PNG's sigri AA. The raw beans are big and round. The beans look very beautiful.

The baking effect at the beginning of the second explosion is very good, and most of the beans are stretched out and very full. Drink immediately after baking, although it is not the best drinking time, but the taste is still relatively clean, with only a light miscellaneous smell, which may be caused by the gas not released from the freshly baked beans. But the overall sense of balance is better, after the taste is smooth, the rhyme is long-lasting.

Finally, it seems that there are rumors that Taiwan's sigri has been bought out by a company, so each company seems to have no replenishment, and the later "birds of paradise" all seem to be purosa.
