Natural conditions for growing coffee beans in Panama characteristics of ecological coffee flavor in Catova Duncan Coffee Manor

Central American countries are usually close to two oceans, with the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west, while Panama is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the south, while the north and south of Banama are only 60000-177,000 meters wide, indicating that the climate is vulnerable to the two oceans. The warm and rainy moisture of the Pacific Ocean blows to the mountains from May to November, bringing important rainfall and humidity to the manor, while strong winds and lower humidity in the Atlantic Ocean blow from north to south from February to March of the next year, forming an important comparison of dry and wet seasons, which is of great help to the growth cycle of coffee.

There is still a large area of undeveloped primeval forest near Katova's manor. Ricardo takes good care of it. Not only is the manor located in the migration path of migratory birds, but because of its unique topography and multiple primitive forests, it is also the habitat of many birds. Panama has a wide variety of bird species, far more than North America and Europe, which also forms a special color bird watching in Katova Manor. In addition to growing coffee trees, Ricardo has planted more than 500 kinds of local fruit trees to produce fruits and nuts for birds to eat. In order to preserve the pristine ecology, he is almost picky and rare in the coffee circle, no wonder Panama's National Environment Agency awarded the "Best Ecological Clean Industry Award of the year" to Catova Manor in 2006.

In addition, Katova has been awarded by the Panama National Bureau of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) for nine years in a row for their achievements in employment services. Ricardo provides free medical centers, free nursery environment, free meals and nutritional care for manor workers. Even the big enterprises with tens of billions of dollars in revenue in Taiwan may not be able to take care of these things, but the coffee plantations in the mountains of Panama have done so, which is admirable and sighing.

Ricardo's estate won both the tanning group and the traditional variety category in the "Best Panama" competition in 2012, and one estate won two championships at the same time. His strength is by no means a false reputation, and his spirit of waiting patiently and paying attention to every detail, and his attitude of self-eliminating 30% coffee fruit is worth pondering.

Maybe that's the secret of good coffee.
