Sigri, the bird of paradise in PNG

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.

In Papua New Guinea, about 75 per cent of coffee products come from small local farms. Many farms reclaim land in the forest, and some are in the depths of the forest, almost isolated from the rest of the world. Coffee in the country is grown on highlands between 1300 and 1800 meters above sea level, so it is of high quality. Although coffee is also grown in some lowlands, the yield is relatively small. Most of the locally grown coffee is grown under natural conditions because of the problems and high costs of transporting chemical fertilizers and pesticides to the farm.

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."

Papua New Guinea is an island country in Oceania. In Malay, "Papua" means "curly hair".

Papua New Guinea is an island country in the South Pacific, with the second largest population and land area in the South Pacific after Australia. Pakistan not only retains nearly a thousand years of native language and traditional customs, its natural environment is also one of the least developed countries in the world.

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. As coffee in the country is widely grown in the highlands of 1300 to 1800 meters above sea level, coffee beans are plump and varied in taste, with pleasant acidity and fruit-like sweetness.

Sigri Estate was one of the first coffee farms to emerge when coffee cultivation in Papua New Guinea began to be commercialized in 1950. Siguri Manor is located in the western highlands of the Waghi Valley, with an elevation of 1600 meters, rich precipitation and fertile soil to ensure the high quality of its raw coffee beans. Although the requirements for boutique coffee were very strict at that time, the newly established Siguri Manor was quickly recognized by the world for its high quality.

In order to ensure high quality, Siguri Manor has very strict requirements for raw beans. The bright red and ripe fruits were picked by hand, peeled and fleshed on the same day, and then washed with live water to remove the final mucous membrane. Unlike his estate in Papua New Guinea, Siguri's carefully selected raw beans are washed for 24 hours and fermented for three days, then soaked to ensure their cleanliness, and finally sun-dried and hand-graded.

With the continuous improvement of Sigri's reputation, he finally became one of the best coffee in the world more than 20 years ago, and became a popular boutique coffee for coffee lovers.
