Carmen Estate has been producing and exporting high-quality Arabica coffee for 50 years. Carlos Aguilera is the third generation of landowners. The estate and processing plant were founded by grandparents Efrain and Carmen Franceschi in 1960. The Franceschi family emigrated to Panama from the French island of Corsica as early as 1800 and engaged in animal husbandry, agriculture and shipbuilding. Later, the old grandmother Carmen suggested to Mr. Efrain to grow coffee before entering the coffee industry, so the estate was named Carmen. It is one of the top estates in Panama and is always at the top of the Best of panama competition. Located in the northwestern mountains of Panama and Costa Rica, the Baru volcano, about 3300 meters high, is located in the Volcan Valley Valley. It is cool at night without frost damage, dry and sunny during the day, and is deeply affected by the micro-climate of the Pacific and Atlantic currents. During the growing period, Rain Water is rich with distinct dry and wet seasons. Coupled with the lava flow through the volcanic zone, the fertile volcanic black soil and good drainage have unique growth conditions.

Despite such excellent production conditions, the manor has more stringent requirements for growing high-quality coffee. The award-winning Carmen Manor is a coffee estate certified by the Rain Forest Alliance (Rain Forest Alliance logo), with a shaded area of 60%. Abide by a series of strict agricultural production standards and principles, attach great importance to the ecological environment and ecological protection of the natural environment, in order to achieve the conservation of biodiversity and provide sustainable development. In order to produce the best quality coffee, each batch collected from the producing area will be tested batch by batch to avoid the mixing of defective beans in order to confirm the quality consistency. In addition, the coffee with good quality will be tested separately in the laboratory to analyze the aroma, acidity, body and flavor of coffee to establish a quality index. With such a rigorous attitude to produce stable quality coffee, there is no doubt that it has become the winner of the Panamanian coffee competition.
