About This Coffee

Papua New Guinea coffees often possess a unique character influenced by Indonesian processing styles but typically with more acidity and fruit. Sigri Estate is one of PNG's most well-known and respected plantations, focusing on quality control. This 'AA' graded coffee (large bean size) is usually washed. Expect a complex cup with intriguing herbal or savory notes, balanced by stone fruit sweetness (like plum or apricot) and a deep molasses or brown sugar character. There might be a subtle earthy undertone reminiscent of its Indonesian neighbours, but the overall profile is often cleaner and brighter, with a distinctly creamy or buttery body.
