There is a strong floral aroma and clean fruit aroma, the flavor is amazing.

The aborigines of gbe Indians Nobeb Gray are employed at the most reasonable salary in accordance with Central American labour laws.

Los Lajones Estate Farm is a century-old small farm located in the Boquete Pokuit producing area at an altitude of 1750 to 2150 meters above sea level. Now the owner of the farm, Graciano Cruz Casino Cruz, is a serious coffee lover. The farm is the first one in Panama to develop honey treatment. The basic principle of honey treatment is that only fully ripe coffee cherries are harvested, and the sugar content of beans is measured, and the harvest ends every day during the mature harvest period. Immediately concentrate the freshly picked cherries, remove the peel and pulp but retain the fresh mucous membrane on the bean skin, and then spread it on the outdoor bamboo rack, which usually takes 10-12 days to dry. The moisture content of the beans at the end of the drying stage is about 11%. After that, it is wrapped in parchment to remove the mucous membrane by machine and bag the beans.

Honey treatment can really solve the problem of huge funds for the construction of water treatment plants and sun-drying plants, and another advantage can enable remote and small-scale farms to eliminate the problem of excessive fermentation of fresh cherries during transportation. this can really implement the emergence of small-scale excellent farms with small yields, and also lead to the path of coffee in Taiwan.
