Panama's geography means that the region has a unique microclimate, with many competent and dedicated coffee producers, so there is a lot of excellent quality coffee in the region, which is of course relatively expensive.

Coffee's high prices also stem from another important factor: real estate. Many North Americans want to buy homes in this politically stable, scenic, and relatively inexpensive country, so land demand is extremely high, and much of the land that used to be used as coffee gardens is now used as homes for foreigners. Panama also has higher standards in its labour protection legislation, and coffee pickers receive higher wages, which are indirectly passed on to consumers.

Panama coffee growing environment

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

Panama is located at 9 degrees north latitude, at the confluence of the Central Mountain Range, where Mount Baru, one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, is located.

With an elevation of more than 11,400 feet, the surrounding soil is rich in nutrients and fertile soil, providing sufficient conditions for the planting and cultivation of Panamanian coffee.

These uplands have the right microclimate, soil, temperature and altitude for the planting, cultivation and harvesting of a wide variety of specialty coffees. These coffees have jasmine, citrus, ripe fruit, berry, caramel, special sweetness, vanilla, chocolate and many 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. Panama's east-west environment allows cold air currents to flow through the Central Mountains and converge above 6500 feet, thus creating a variety of microclimates in the Boquete and Volcán-Candela regions, making them the main producers of Panamanian coffee. These specialty coffees are grown on nutrient-rich, well-balanced soil in the Baru volcano region.

Panamanian coffee is sorted and numbered in small batches designed to be small in volume for optimal management, and the sorting number allows buyers to understand and track information throughout the process.

Due to its small volume, Panamanian coffee products are based on specialty coffee. The country supplies its quality products to specialist stores in countries around the world such as Denmark, England, Greece, Norway, Sweden, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and the United States.

Geisha coffee is native to the Gesha forest in Ethiopia, Africa, and is sometimes called "geisha coffee" because it sounds similar to the Japanese word for "geisha." In the past ten years, Guixia Coffee has won numerous awards and repeatedly set coffee bean auction records, which is also very popular in China. About the legendary history of Guixia, there are many online materials, we can Baidu themselves, here no longer repeat. In short, it was discovered in the 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 of Panama Emerald Estate accidentally discovered the unique charm of Rose Summer and began to participate in the World Coffee Competition alone, causing a sensation. Since then, Rose Summer has become popular, and the upsurge continues to this day. In addition to being widely planted in Central and South America, it has also been reintroduced back to Ethiopia, which can be said to have opened branches and scattered leaves, with unlimited scenery.
