Last Updated: 2024/09/20, Coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style) official coffee production in Panama began in the early twentieth century and was grown in the westernmost valleys and mountains of the country, mostly Arabica coffee beans with a mild taste, producing 82% Arabica and 18% Robusta varieties respectively. Plant 2300 above sea level

The Panamanian coffee beans produced in the Pokuit region of Chiriki province in Panama are very famous, including the well-known jadeite manor rosy summer coffee. Why is the coffee quality in Pokuit so good? Qianjie believes that it has a lot to do with the natural environment in which coffee grows. Do you know? Panamanian Pokuit coffee beans grow up to 1400-1900 meters above sea level, close to the famous Baru volcano, volcanic soil rich in a variety of organic nutrients, humid climate, very suitable for the production of quality coffee. Qianjie coffee cup tested a variety of Panamanian coffee beans, after multiple choices, and finally put on the shelves from Emerald Manor Rose Summer Coffee, Arida Manor and Hartman Manor and so on.

Since the store opened in 2013, there are nearly 200 coffee beans in Qianjie Coffee. In China, few boutique coffee shops have so many hand-made coffee beans on the shelves, and the purpose of the constantly updated coffee beans in Qianjie is to establish the corresponding coffee information and at the same time gain an in-depth understanding of each type of coffee beans and the corresponding producing areas of coffee beans in each country. and then show it to you through words, pictures and other forms.

Today, Qianjie Coffee would like to introduce Panamanian coffee beans from the Pokuit producing area of Panama. The cultivation of coffee trees is actually very fastidious, except that Kaddura, which is planted in Brazil, is a kind of sun-exposed coffee, which does not need shade trees, and many coffee tree beans need shade trees.

According to Qianjie Coffee, the plantations in Pokuit, Panama need shade trees. More than 50 plantations per hectare are full shade plantations, 25-50 are semi-shaded plantations, and less than 25 are sunshine plantations. Shade trees play a very important role in coffee, because the Poquet plantation with shade trees can block the strong sunlight and slow down the ripening time of coffee fruit. the extension of time can make the coffee fruit slowly accumulate more coffee substances, so the coffee plantations with shade trees have a higher flavor.

And the coffee beans at the Panamanian Coffee Farm are mostly hand-selected Arabica beans, and each batch of beans can be traced back to their origin. The origin of the Panamanian coffee beans at the Jade Manor on the front street can be traced back to. For example, the red standard rose summer coffee has a cup test score of more than 90 points, and the coffee trees are planted at an altitude of between 1600 and 1800 meters, mainly from two plots: Haramillo and Cannes Vidis: green standard rose summer coffee without cup test scores. Coffee trees are also planted between 1600 and 1800 meters above sea level, mainly from two mixed plots of Haramillo and Kannas Vidis: blue Standard Rose Summer Coffee. And Canas Vidis these two plots: green label Rosa Coffee does not require cup test results, and coffee trees are planted between 1400 and 1500 meters above sea level, mainly from the three mixed plots of Haramillo and Canasvedis and the veil.

In addition, in addition to Panamanian rosy summer coffee beans, there is also a very cost-effective Panamanian coffee bean-Flower Butterfly, which has 70% rosy summer high-quality pedigree, composed of Rosa, Kaddura and Kaduai. Because of the abundant rainfall in Panama, water washing is often used to deal with coffee beans, such as the rose summer coffee varieties mentioned in front street, both green and blue labels have washed coffee beans. And this flower butterfly coffee bean is washed, so Qianjie this flower butterfly boiled out after death, the taste is more mellow, the acidity is bright, the flower smell is also very rich, in the cooking process can smell a strong rose fragrance.

This Panamanian Flower Butterfly Coffee is washed by picking ripe coffee fruits and then selecting impurities or shoddy beans by flotation. Because after the coffee fruit is poured into the sink, the ripe and full coffee fruit will sink to the bottom and the immature coffee fruit will float on the surface of the water. The peel and pulp of the coffee fruit is then removed and fermented in a pool for 18 hours before cleaning. The coffee fruit can then be dried.

Because the treatment will affect the coffee flavor to some extent, just like most of the customers who come to Qianjie to buy coffee beans don't know much about coffee treatment, so they don't know the difference between washing treatment and sun treatment. Through the front street several times tested a variety of washed coffee beans and sun-treated coffee beans found that the acid of washed coffee beans will be brighter, sun-treated coffee beans will be much more mellow in the taste, sweet and fragrant.

According to Qianjie, at that time, in order to pursue yield, the early rose variety was mixed with coffee trees of Kaddura and Kaduai, while the flower butterfly was made by artificial later stage, but because the three species of flower butterfly were all from the same place and produced in the same area, the flower butterfly belonged to individual coffee. We can use the three-stage method when brewing this kind of butterfly coffee, because Qianjie Coffee thinks it is a relatively simple way to brew out the flavor of the producing area.

Qianjie also bought coffee beans from another Arida estate in Pokuit, which is a very famous coffee estate in Panama with very high quality coffee. Qianjie Coffee has previously tested the rosy summer coffee beans on the same plot and at the same altitude in Arida Manor, and found that the hierarchy of Arida Rose Summer Coffee is more complicated than that of Emerald Manor Rose Summer Coffee, probably because of the different treatment.

According to Qianjie Coffee, Alida Manor coffee beans often achieve good results in coffee cup test competitions, which is inseparable from the excellent geographical environment of Arida Manor. The coffee trees of Alida Manor are planted at elevations between 1600 and 1800, which is one of the highest coffee farms in Panama. In such a high altitude environment, low temperature means that the ripening period of coffee berries is extended one month later than the normal ripening period. In addition, Alida Manor is close to volcanoes, which provides fertile nutrients for coffee trees. These conditions play a very important role in promoting the formation of coffee flavor.
