Panama Hartmann Estate of Hartmann Manor in Panama

When it comes to Panamanian coffee tradition, most of the boutique coffee producing areas that are familiar to the public come from Boquete, but in recent years, coffee from Volcan has gradually emerged in the boutique market, and at the same time, a considerable number of estates have entered the best Panama competition (Best of Panama) or even won the championship. Generally speaking, the average annual rainfall in Walken is less than that in Borquette. At the same time, the geographical environment located to the west of the Baru volcano also gives coffee a stronger dried fruit flavor, sweetness and aroma than the Boguet region. In the early days, most of the cash crops such as fruits and vegetables were grown in Walken, and only a few farmers grew coffee, among which the pioneer of coffee cultivation in Walken belonged to the Hartman family, which was well-known in Panama.

The story of the Hartmann family in Panama can be said to be a long history of European immigration. Alois Strasil Hartmann was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire at that time, that is, the present-day Czech Republic. Later, due to the unstable national politics, Alois decided to start a new life outside the country. At first, Alois stayed in New York and then moved to Panama, but after a few months, Alois found that he was not adapted to the urban life of Panama City. DNA, who had always had adventures in his blood, decided to work and settle down along the mountain line to the Walken area shortly after quitting his job. He also married his first wife Susana Troetsch and gave birth to Hartmann Troetsch, the founder of Hartman Manor. Hartmann Troetsch inherited his father's farmland and began land preparation work in 1940, and then started the history of Hartman Manor to this day. During the initial reclamation, the old Hartman decided to retain most of the original woodland in the manor, and this concept of primary forest protection has always influenced the third generation of manor owners who are now in charge of management. Hartman Manor still maintains this tradition. The coffee planting land in the manor accounts for only about 20% of the whole manor. due to the results of woodland conservation, there are quite a lot of native birds in the manor. And the most famous big-billed bird in the area has naturally become the standard Logo of the manor.

At present, the five children of Hartmann Troetsch handle the large and small affairs of Hartman Manor, among which the eldest Ratibor and Kelly are mainly responsible for the planting, breeding and fertilization of coffee in the park, which is the soul of Hartman Manor. In addition to its own estate, the Hartmann family also provides management services for estates near Volcan. For example, Ninety Plus's estate in Panama has maintained a close relationship with the Hartmann family to manage various matters within the estate.

The Eye of Water has always been a favorite area in Hartman Manor, which is located at a high altitude in the manor and its annual output is very rare. at present, only a few varieties of geisha, Kaddura and Kadui are planted in this area. the manor has a total area of 120 hectares, of which only 20 hectares are used as planting land. Another estate, named Santa Clara, is the site of Hartman's washing plant in addition to serving as a coffee farm and nursery plant. it is also an area where landowners experiment with the flavor of different varieties, with a total of more than ten varieties currently being tested and more if potential varieties are planned for future planting.

The story of the Hartmann family in Panama can be said to be a long history of European immigration. Alois Strasil Hartmann was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire at that time, that is, the present-day Czech Republic. Later, due to the unstable national politics, Alois decided to start a new life outside the country. At first, Alois stayed in New York and then moved to Panama, but after a few months, Alois found that he was not adapted to the urban life of Panama City.

In botany, coffee tree belongs to the evergreen tree of subgenus Rubiaceae. Coffee bean is the seed of coffee tree fruit, among which there are three major varieties: Arabica, Robusta and Liberica. Different subspecies can not be mixed among these three varieties. All the fine coffee in the world comes from Arabica species, and there are various subspecies of Arabica coffee, such as evolution, hybridization, mutation and so on.

Kaddura species (Caturra)

The Bourbon mutant was first found in Brazil. The palate is sour with lemon or citrus flavors and fruity in sweetness. although the sweetness is not as sweet as Typica and bourbon, the sweetness can be very good with proper baking. Kaddura's sweetness is determined by the number and dose of fertilizer applied by the grower, and the harvest period takes 2 years and the care cost is high, so the yield is still limited.

When we came to Hartman Manor in Panama, we saw that people growing coffee here always followed the requirements of green protection, and the farm compost was made from pulp and cherry skins. Curious about what kind of coffee taste will be nurtured in such an environment, I can't wait to make a cup of Hartman. Ta has a pure flavor, sweet and bright tone, strong honey flavor and stone fruit sweet flavor. Every inch of the mouth has a mellow taste of milk chocolate, even if it is cold. In addition to the local superior climatic conditions, careful cultivation and strict picking, its perfect taste also comes from the special treatment-red wine treatment.

Red wine treatment of coffee beans:

It can also be called red wine treatment, which is inspired by the brewing technology of red wine. At present, only eight estates in Colombia have successfully introduced coffee beans treated with this method to the market. According to the data of these eight estates, we can roughly divide the types of red wine treatment into: acetic acid fermentation (Aerobic aerobic fermentation), lactic acid fermentation (Anaerobuic anaerobic fermentation), mixed fermentation (Mix Fermentation=Aerobic+Anaerobuic).

The traditional treatment method is difficult to control the changeable fermentation degree of coffee beans. But red wine treatment rules can ensure the quality of coffee beans by controlling PH value, even temperature and humidity, and airtight fermentation makes aroma less volatile.

Next, let's talk about the specific process of fermentation. First of all, Colombian farmers carefully pick coffee cherries and carefully select coffee red fruits to ensure that among the coffee cherries selected for processing, the percentage of immature cherries is less than 2%, defective beans less than 3%, and floating beans less than 5%.

The selected coffee cherries are placed in a specific container by the farmer's uncle, which should have a device similar to a red wine fermentation suppository or a single exhaust valve. In this way, carbon dioxide can be spilled through the device to control the concentration of air in the container. At this time, the coffee cherries in the container are fermented with acetic acid, and the beans are relatively bright, clean and citric acid.
