Best of Panama 2013 Runner-up: Janson's Coffee Panama

For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

Panama is one of the most advanced coffee producing areas I have ever visited, the price is also high, and many famous estates can be reached directly by RV. Earlier, for the Metropolis Daily, I took you to find the best coffee bean Geisha in the world!

Panama is located in Central America, because of its connection between North and South America, it has always had an important strategic position in history. In the past, the United States and France have been fighting for control of the canal, and Geisha coffee from Panama has become a must, from $92.30 a pound in 2011 to $107.86 a pound in 2014. this year, the price of raw beans has reached a new high at public auction.

Driving by Boquete and walking west around the Volc á n Baru volcano for about one and a half hours, I came to Janson Coffee Farm, the second place in the Best of Panama 2013 Best Coffee Bean Competition. The fog in the coffee garden is steaming like a fairyland.

Boquete and Volc á n are both volcanic areas, located on the east and west sides of Volc á n Baru, respectively, but the microclimate is obviously different. Volc á n is sunny (although the fog is transpiring, the degree of misty rain is lower than that of Kotowa Geisha Farm). The rich volcanic soil and microclimate here make the small varieties of Rosa Coffee thrive. Coupled with the natural spring water washed coffee, the kind of seductive taste buds of fruit and flowers, very special!

Baby Geisha Nursery small grain variety rose summer coffee nursery. I really want to take some trees home.

The owner Leif Janson showed me his coffee farm. Janson's Coffee occupies a large area and is one of the largest coffee farms in Volc á n. It takes a four-wheel drive from one brown field to another.

The coffee tree is very green and healthy, and the fruit is full of grains. It is conceivable that it must be beautiful when it is ripe.

The owner Leif Janson took me to drink coffee, and Janson's coffee won the second place in Best of Panama for a reason.

Drinking coffee above 1000 meters above sea level is probably the highest coffee shop in Panama!

Know how to use it, use the Smart Cup!
