Remember the Panamanian Duncan geisha introduced a while ago?

He is the masterpiece of the 2016 Best of Panama (Best Panama) award-winning manor and one of the star estates under Kotowa, Panama's famous and award-winning manor group.

Today I would like to extend the introduction of her sister manor, which is also the Finca Kotowa tradicional of the Kotowa Group.

Although the Kotwa Mountain Manor is slightly less than Duncan Manor at an altitude of 1700 meters, there are no weak generals under the famous family! Launched this month, the Panamanian Cova Mountain Manor Honey treatment Fakaduai also has an elevation of 1350 meters, which is also a potential stock with considerable future! I believe that the price will be higher and higher in a few years, if you want to try, take advantage of this year, the CP value is super high!

Then let the small coffee again introduce this coffee group-Kotowa, which coffee gluttons must know.

Kotowa is located in the Boquete valley next to the Balu volcano in Panama; Baru Volcano has the most advantaged microclimate and volcanic topography in Panama; during the growing period, Rain Water is rich in dry and wet seasons, the black soil is not only fertile, the drainage effect is also very good, making the ecological environment rich, the smell of coffee produced is particularly attractive.

Kotwa Manor was founded in the early 20th century by Alexander Duncan McIntyre (Alexander Duncan McIntyre). Kotowa is taken from the local Indian language "high mountain". The simple and beautiful environment of Panama deeply attracted Alexander and made him choose to plow and grow coffee here. So far, it has been run by the fourth generation of successors, Ricardo Keyan (Ricardo Koyner).

Cottwa Manor has four coffee farms, namely FincaKotowa Duncan Manor,

(Finca Kotowa Don K), Crystal River (Finca Kotowa R and O CRISTAL) and Finca Kotowa tradicional.

In addition to the excellent natural environment, nothing is more admirable than Cottwa Manor for the development and production of coffee beans, relying entirely on manual care, slow work, picky, and the pursuit of perfection is their tenet. According to the ancient method, only 100% ripe crimson fruit, or dark purple fruit within two weeks after maturity, although the fruit of this period is not easy to collect, it can best highlight the delicate fruit tone. It has a soft finish with floral aromas, flavors, sweet and sour citrus and nuts or green apple on the palate.

The picked coffee fruit is treated with modern pulping equipment, and the local natural and clean natural water source is used to wash the coffee berries and remove the pulp. After natural drying, raw coffee beans are stored in a constant temperature warehouse of 45 degrees. After two months, the water content of the raw beans will tend to be the same, the flavor will be more mature, and the aroma and taste will be more attractive.

This Panamanian Kova Mountain Manor Honey Fakaduai seed comes from the same group compared to the Duncan Village garden geisha introduced last time, but the price is very close to the people! The method of honey treatment is adopted, and the wet fragrance after baking is a rich citrus flower and fruit aroma, like a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice, sweet and refreshing, but it tastes like mellow top chocolate chips with ripe grapes in the middle. the rich dark chocolate flavor is dotted with a hint of sweet and sour. It is also suitable to add a little milk to enjoy, it is undoubtedly a cup of mellow dark chocolate milk!
