Front Street-Panama Red Prospect Coffee brewing and sharing

Panama can be said to be a heavyweight in the boutique coffee market, because the rose summer coffee grown in various manors has won many championships in the world competition, so rose summer coffee has become the most famous coffee in Panama. it is also the most expensive coffee in the coffee market today.

In 1780, Europeans brought the first batch of Typica trees to Panama, which opened the history of coffee cultivation in Panama. Today, coffee has not only become an important cash crop in Panama, but even in recent years, it has repeatedly won awards and become an indispensable producing area of boutique coffee.

Panama has a unique geographical location. The country is located at 9 degrees north latitude, with beaches connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean on both sides, while the coffee giants Colombia and Costa Rica border on the east and west. There are many mountains in the country, and the Peru volcano, one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, is the meeting point of the Central Mountains. The unique microclimate (micro-climate) of many Panamanian producing areas is suitable for the growth of boutique coffee: Rain Water of Panama, sometimes from the Pacific, sometimes from the Atlantic.

At the end of the rainy season, a northerly wind that locals call "Bajareque" blows like air in the mountains of Panama, slowing down the ripening rate of coffee fruit and raising sugar content. At the same time, Panama has gained top coffee processing technology with the help of the United States, the world's largest coffee consumer, thus giving birth to Panamanian coffee with a unique flavor. Typical Panamanian coffee is full and light in weight, medium and uniform in flavor and texture, balanced in acidity and pure in flavor. In recent years, high-quality Panamanian coffee has also shown a clean, clear, bright and gentle taste and medium mellow thickness.
