Cup test report:

Finca Lerida is located in Panama's famous Boquete coffee producing area. In 1924, M ö nniche and his wife from Norway came here to marvel at the beautiful and diverse natural environment, settled here and began to grow coffee. M ö nniche, an engineer himself, discovered that the quality of coffee cherries was often uneven after harvest, so he studied and invented Sifon, a device for floating and layered extraction of beans.

Although today's practice is the norm, nearly a hundred years ago, it was a pioneering work.

In 1929, Redda Manor began to export coffee to Europe and immediately became the representative of fine coffee.

Today, the manor is run by the Chiari family. In addition to growing high-quality coffee beans, it also operates a natural ecological hotel, thanks to the protection and management of the entire primeval forest by the landowner. More than 500 species of birds can be seen in the manor, making it a famous hot spot for bird watching and outdoor ecological activities in Central America.

Since the beginning of this year, the bidding price of Pacamara has been comparable to that of the most expensive Geisha in the world. Coffee fans all over the world have begun to notice this charming variety, but it also means that the price of this variety will continue to rise, just like the Geisha at that time, fortunately, our relationship with the manor is good, and we can still get batches with high CP values. It also allows foodies to taste high-quality coffee at a relatively cheap price.

This is a special tasting experience. At the entrance, there will be an illusion that there is too much water, but it is actually because it is too clean, just like we taste high-grade sushi. You have melted in your mouth before you have time to feel its flavor, and even before your reason can react, the nervous system has begun to receive this coffee to express the sound of complex noise, incredible depth. The charming flavor combination, paired with the tonality of sun-dried fruits, is a balanced and pure expression that is incomparable to the popular citrus and berry coffee nowadays. In fact, many citrus and berry coffee can be made through so-called fertilizer or later technology (of course, there are also natural), while the really high-quality coffee depends on the original trace elements of the land, and micro-climate. And so on, tempered by natural performance, this is a very powerful coffee, it is very worth tasting--
