Introduction:

Kotowa is from Alexander Duncan Mac Intyre of Canadian origin.

In 1913, I learned about the Pokuit Coffee region of Panama (Boquete) through the theme of a newspaper column.

After on-the-spot investigation, I deeply fell in love with the superior environment of the Pokuit coffee producing area (Boquete), so

When he emigrated and began to grow coffee, he chose an undeveloped Shanbo land, which is the third generation operator.

Donovan's grandfather. Kotowa has a total of four coffee estates, namely Duncan Manor.

(Finca Kotowa Duncan), Finca Kotowa Don K, Crystal River (Finca Kotowa)

RIO CRISTAL), Finca Kotowa tradicional, of which this Duncan Manor

Finca Duncan is named after the owner who pioneered the land. It has been seen frequently in recent years.

Witch Las Brujas Kotowa, should be Cotova Manor (Kotowa) put the best

The block of land is independent and participates in the annual competition of Best Panama (BOP) and wins many prizes.

It is well deserved, but the price is also high. The two most famous estates are Duncan.

And Don K, named after the grandfather and father of the current landowner, respectively. Located on Mount Baru.

Producing area (Baru Volcano), with unique microclimate and volcanic topography.

During the growing period, Rain Water has a clear dry and wet season; coupled with the lava flowing through the volcanic belt, fertile volcanoes

Black soil and good drainage have a unique growth environment, resulting in the smell of coffee.

It's particularly fascinating. And the two manors are actually on both sides of the mausoleum line, not only

The microclimate changes a lot, and the flavor of coffee is quite different. The original intention of Kotowa comes from

The native language of the Indian is represented by "mountain". More than a hundred years ago

Alexander Duncan McIntyre (Alexander Duncan McIntyre) came to Panama

In this land, the simplicity and beautiful environment of the people here deeply attracted him.

Since then, the family has grown coffee here, and so far it has been the fourth generation successor, Ricardo Koyner.

To run it.

Don K Manor, owned by the Kotowa family, is located about 1700 to 1750 meters above sea level.

Located on the west side of the Boquete producing area next to the Baru volcano, on the El Salto Plateau Highland.

Just opposite Duncan, sitting on both sides of the volcanic line, although both sitting on both sides of the line.

However, the micro-climate factors in the producing areas on both sides of the canyon bring completely different flavors to the coffee of the two estates.

Planting varieties are Geisha, Pacamara, Caturra, because the night is cool and frost-free,

It is dry and sunny during the day, which is deeply affected by the microclimate of the rendezvous of Pacific and Atlantic currents.

During the growing period, the rainfall is abundant, the dry and wet rainy season is distinct, and the coffee has a strong floral aroma and clean.

Fruity, cup test quality is far better than other coffee, the flavor is amazing, the quality remains stable.

In the harvest season, carefully pick red-purple ripe cherries and use modern pulping

The equipment carries on the raw bean treatment, and uses the local natural clean water source to wash the coffee berry.

And to remove meat, they use only half a liter of water per pound of raw beans compared to other treatment plants.

It saves about 10 to 20 litres of water for every pound of raw beans produced, while the pulp is the same as that of the flesh.

The waste water is reused into organic fertilizer; the raw coffee beans are naturally dried and stored at 45 degrees C.

In the constant temperature warehouse, the water content will tend to be the same and the flavor will be softer after two months.

The aroma and taste are more charming.

Each batch of raw coffee beans in the manor is guaranteed to have its traceability, and each bag of coffee is in

There are detailed records on the farm, including planting, treatment process. Wait, wait, wait.

Kotowa is not only the winner of the coffee competition, but also attaches great importance to the ecological environment.
