Did Panama Emerald grow its coffee beans in the first place? How is it graded?

The micro-climate and volcanic soil of the Balu volcano in Panama have attracted many coffee farms to the area, as well as the jade estate in Panama.

The Jadeite Manor is located in the corner of the Baru volcano. Its owner, the Peterson family, bought the Jade Manor in Poquet in 1964, but at that time it did not take coffee as the main industry, but the dairy industry. At this time, the Jadeite Manor is only for personal leisure and entertainment, and is not as well-known in coffee development as it is now. In 1973, according to the geographical conditions such as land and climate, Price Peterson divided the coffee cultivation of Jadeite Manor into three frequency to sell (Esmerala Special,Diamon Mountain grows, Palmyra). Since 2012, Rosa has become one of the four major brands.

The Jade Manor is divided into four plots: Ca ñ as Verdes, El Velo, Jaramillo and Palmira. All the coffee beans are sent to four farms for processing. The first farm bought by the Peterson family, the owner, was Palmira. High-quality Rose Summer is mainly produced in Jaramillo and Ca ñ as Verdes estates.

The annual precipitation of Jaramillo is 4000ml, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, with an average elevation of 1600 m-1700 m.

The annual precipitation of Ca ñ as Verdes is 3500ml, with an average elevation of 1600 m-1800 m.

Veil EL VELO: it is the latest piece of land purchased by Jadeite Manor in 2012, with an average elevation of 1700 meters to 1900 meters. In addition to planting Rosa and Kaduai, the site also has a small number of other exotic species, such as Kenya's famous SL28.

In 1996, the second-generation landowner Price Peterson bought the Jaramillo plot, where the coffee grown is vaguely citrus and floral, different from the fruity Hell of Central and South American berries. In 2002, Price and his son Daniel thought that the tonality should be a single variety from a growing area, so they began to test the varieties of coffee grown at different elevations in the manor one by one.

It turns out that this charming tone comes from the windbreak on the border of Jaramillo, and the elevation of this piece of land is 1500M2000 meters. This kind of coffee tree is thin, tall, sparse leaves, low yield and low economic value, and is generally regarded as a windbreak. However, Peterson and his son found that the flavor of this coffee tree is very different from that of 1500 meters at an altitude of 1400. Therefore, the two men agreed that this kind of coffee tree must be planted at an altitude of 1500 meters in order to get such a unique flavor.

After tracing its origins, the coffee tree was introduced from Ethiopia in 1963 to solve the problem of diseases in coffee cultivation at that time.

In the 2004 competition for the best Panamanian raw beans, Emerald Manor won the first prize for this kind of coffee beans, and then rose summer coffee beans became famous internationally.

The coffee fruit growing above 1400 meters above sea level will have the unique flavor of Rosa species, which can be divided into three grades: red standard, green standard and blue standard according to the planting height and cup test results.

Jadeite specially selected Esmeralda Special, commonly known as Red Standard

The rosy summer specially selected by jadeite is the red sign we often hear. The rosy summer coffee beans, which are planted at 1600-1800 meters above sea level and with a cup test score of more than 90 points, are produced in two producing areas of Jaramillo and Canas Verdes. The independent bidding held by the Jade Manor itself, in the divided plots, the Rose Summer batch that was put forward for bidding is the red bid. Guests often ask whether the competitive red bid is good to drink or the red bid is good to drink. In fact, the non-competitive red bid and the competitive red bid belong to the same plot. The difference lies in whether they participate in the bidding or not. Qianjie coffee thinks that it is not necessary to drink the bidding grade, first, the price is really high, and second, if you just want to try, the red mark is also a good choice.

The red standard rose summer of Qianjie Coffee Emerald Manor comes from the Burmese yarn plot. This grade of rose summer is treated in the sun or water, with special, bright floral and citrus aromas.

Private collection of Private Collection, commonly known as Green Standard

Private collection, commonly known as green standard, is not a batch of independent competitions, planting rose summer varieties that do not participate in bidding but are still of excellent quality. Micro-batch mixed beans from different plots such as Jaramillo and Canas Verdes were planted at 1600-1800 meters above sea level. People often ask what is the difference between a red sign and a green one. Qianjie Coffee gives the most easy-to-understand answer, that is, which small plot can be traced back to the red mark, while the green mark is that the mixed beans are untraceable. Because the mode of mixed beans is adopted, it is not specified in detail on the plot, so sometimes the flavor of the green mark is very similar to that of the red mark, but the next product may be different. Qianjie coffee feels like buying a lottery ticket. Maybe the batch you drink this time is the taste of the red mark. Green roses will be treated by sun / water washing treatment.

The green standard rose summer of Qianjie Coffee Jade Manor is treated with water washing. The green rose summer of water washing treatment has fresh jasmine and ginger fragrance, citrus-like bright acidity, thick and juicy taste.

Rosa 1500 Geisha1500, commonly known as Blue Standard

Rose summer 1500 this brand is our common blue standard rose summer. Choose mixed beans from three different plots: Jaramillo, Canas Verdes and El Velo, which are 1400-1500 meters above sea level.

In previous years, the blue standard rose summer was only treated with water, while the blue standard batch in the 2020 production season added a new way of sun treatment.
