Panama, or Panama for short, is the southernmost country in Central America, with a total area of 75517 square kilometers and its capital Panama City. On the isthmus of Panama in Central America, it borders Colombia to the east, the Pacific Ocean to the south, Costa Rica to the west and the Caribbean Sea to the north. The territory is S-shaped connecting North America and South America, and the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean from north to south, with the name of "World Bridge".

Panama has an area of 75517 square kilometres, a length of 772 kilometres and a width of between 60 and 177 kilometres. The coastline is 2988 km long and the land boundary is 555 km long. In latitude and longitude, Panama lies between 7° and 10° north latitude and between 77° and 83° west longitude.

The Baru volcano is not only the highest mountain range in Panama, but the sediments produced by early volcanic activity and eruptions bring abundant and very fertile soil, which is rich in nutrients, especially phosphorus and sulfur. When mixed with clay, together with unique climatic patterns, it forms an environment suitable for the growth of high-quality coffee. The dense forest and the large number of species form the overall biodiversity.

The coffee farmers here, about 50 of them in a small cooperative, produce coffee the traditional way in the Borquites-growing it in a near-natural environment. Although the yield is not high, it can maintain a rich ecological environment, and the soil quality can be maintained or even improved.

Natural cultivation methods are not only beneficial to the environment, because coffee fruit grows slowly, so it is easier to grow high-quality and very good flavor coffee beans. The farmers manually harvest the whole berries and send them to the nearby Cafede ELEta S.A. for post-processing, which is about 4 km away from the farm and has a modern laboratory attached for quality control and manual screening.

This coffee consists of three varieties: Guixia, Kadura and Kaduai. It grows in volcanic areas above 1600 degrees above sea level. The treatment plant uses fine honey treatment and traditional washing. Panama's special local microclimate results in abundant rainfall in the region, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. In addition, the volcanic rock soil unique to volcanic areas, as well as careful harvesting and fine processing, make this coffee excellent in terms of body, acidity and tea feel.
