The geographical environment of Panama means that there are many unique microclimates in the coffee producing areas in Panama, including many highly capable and dedicated coffee producers, so there is a lot of coffee of excellent quality, which is relatively expensive.

On the one hand, the high price of coffee comes from another important factor: real estate. Many North Americans want to buy houses in this politically stable, scenic and relatively cheap country, so the demand for land is so high that much of the land that used to serve as coffee plantations is now home to aliens. Panama also has higher standards on the labor security bill, with higher wages for coffee pickers, and these costs are indirectly passed on to consumers.

Panamanian coffee growing environment

Panama is a small country located in the center of the American continent. The waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans flood its beaches.

Panama is located at 9 degrees north latitude, the meeting point of the Central Mountains, where Mount Baru, one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, is located.

The Baru volcano has an altitude of more than 11400 feet, and the land around it is rich in nutritious and fertile soil, providing sufficient conditions for the sowing and cultivation of coffee endemic to Panama.

The appropriate microclimate, soil, temperature and height of these highlands are suitable for sowing, planting and harvesting a variety of unique coffees. These coffees have jasmine, citrus, ripe fruit, berries, caramel, special sweetness, vanilla, chocolate and other flavors.

Unique coffee

The microclimate of the Panamanian highlands is the most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique.

The most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique is its microclimate. The east-west environment of the Republic of Panama converges cold air over 6500 feet through the Central Mountains, creating a variety of microclimates in the Boquete and Volc á n-Candela regions, making it a major source of Panamanian coffee. These unique coffees are grown in nutritious and balanced land located in the Baru volcano region.

Panamanian coffee is classified and numbered into small batches, which are designed to have a small capacity for optimal management, and classification numbers allow buyers to understand and track the entire process.

Because of its small quantity, Panamanian coffee products are based on special coffee. The country provides its high-quality products to specialized stores around the world, such as Denmark, Britain, Greece, Norway, Sweden, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and the United States.

Geisha coffee is native to the Gesha forest of Ethiopia in Africa. It is sometimes called "geisha coffee" because its pronunciation is similar to the Japanese word "geisha". In the last ten years, Rosa coffee is all-powerful, won numerous awards, and repeatedly set coffee bean auction records, and is also very popular in China. About the legendary history of Rose Summer, there are a lot of information on the Internet. You can do it on your own Baidu. I won't repeat it here. In short, it was discovered in the Rose Summer Forest in 1931, introduced to Uganda and Tanzania in 1936, crossed the ocean to Costa Rica in Central America in 1953, and was introduced to Panama in 1970. For a long time, this kind of coffee was unknown until 2000, when Mr. Peterson Jade Manor of Panama stumbled upon the unique charm of Rose Summer and began to participate in the World Coffee Competition with this breed alone, causing a sensation. In addition to being widely planted in Central and South America, it has also been brought back to Ethiopia, which is full of branches and leaves and boundless scenery.
