Introduction to the Vulcan Valley Manor in Panama: a Journey to the Coffee Revival

This is a quiet coffee garden, located on the hillside southwest of the town of Paso Anqiu.

Since the first visit and introduction of washed beans in this manor more than two years ago, it has become a resident bean fund:

Although Shenqu Manor has a complete set of dry washing equipment, the traditional fermentation water washing process is still used to wash beans: while fermenting in a clean fermentation tank covered with tiles and washing the pulp at the same time, the heaviest raw beans are separated by buoyancy.

For three years in a row, our buyers visited the manor every year and repeatedly amazed at the sun brothel beans produced by the manor for BOP.

So we firmly believe that this manor actually has the potential and ability to produce excellent sun-dried beans, and at the beginning of the 2016 harvest season, we asked the landlord to make their first batch of sun Kaddura for us, but surprisingly, the reaction of the landlord seems to be very reluctant!

She said: sun treatment is not easy to do, it needs a larger exposure field, longer time, it is not good to pick berries and leave them on the ground to dry, the failure rate is very high!

Although surprised, he strongly advised the landlord to try it for us, and decided to take advantage of the visit to learn about the difficulties of this seemingly simple method.

When I visited the manor in March, the landlord asked me to understand the difficulties of the sun method from harvest: due to the lack of buoyancy ratio selection process of water washing treatment, sun treatment was very picky about berry harvest and subsequent fruit selection. No matter Red Kaddura or Yellow Cadura, it must be ripe berries!

At the same time, the time spent drying beans is at least twice as long, which means that there is a greater demand for drying beans; even during the peak harvest season, it will crowd out the exposure space for washing beans.

And dried beans can not be dried continuously at one time: control the degree of sugar concentration / water loss curve / drying temperature / fermentation degree / backosmosis. Many factors are necessary for the successful production of sun-dried beans!

This requires the input of resources / professional / labor. Are far higher than washed beans, the difficulty and the increased cost are quite high!

At the same time, she also admitted like me that due to the erosion of the 2009 flood, she lost a lot of bean drying farms, so the manor's most valuable resource is the bean drying platform, and it is difficult to produce a large number of sun beans!

Fly across the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico to the end of Central America.

Deep into the Vocan Valley valley next to the Baru volcano, Panama's highest peak, when the four-wheel drive climbs down the valley at the end of the winding mud sidewalk, it arrives at the entrance to the Los Cantaras manor-the surrounding scenery is breathtaking!

A stream that now looks beautiful and clear has a sometimes ferocious and deadly side: "there are vertical cliffs at least ten stories high on both sides of the river!" it was left when the stream was angry in 2009, when it was trying its best to scrape off large tracts of land on both sides. The terrible flood also made the Shenqu Manor lose its roads, bridges and electricity. And the buffered river bank which was at least 100 meters away from the river! The flood almost forced the door of the staff dormitory, which once threatened all the buildings of the manor.

Even today, a convenient bridge supported by two pine trees and hundreds of meters of hanging wires across both sides. Still talking about the inconvenience caused by the flood and the profound danger of insecurity ~ it was a tranquil garden at an altitude of 1500-1700m, during the period of Caturra / Catuai / Geisha and coniferous trees

Although the sparrow's well-equipped processing factory is enough to complete everything from berries to sacks, the local aboriginal staff are in fact trusted by the owner, but not born coffee processing experts; in the cup testing room next to the bean drying farm, and Miss Mary, the owner who loves coffee more than herself. All from the 2009 flood, from the depths of the mountains and forests to the world her determination to never give in!
