Guarumo Coffee Farm, also known as Guarumo Coffee Farm, is located north of Hartman Manor in Santa Clara, Chiriki Province, Panama. It is a new estate bought by Ratibor Hartamann, the third-generation administrator of the Hartman family, in 2013. It covers an area of only four hectares ~ the manor coffee is grown in Rosa Coffee, above 1750m above sea level.

The story of the Hartman family in Panama can be said to be a long history of European immigration. Alois Strasil Hartmann (ancestor of the Hartmann family) was born in the then Austro-Hungarian Empire, which is now the Czech Republic. Later, due to the unstable national political situation, Alois decided to start a new life out of town. At first, Alois stayed in New York and then moved to Panama, but after a few months, Alois found that he was not adapted to the urban life of Panama City.

DNA, who had always been adventurous in his blood, quit his job and decided to follow the mountain line to work and settle in the Walken area, when he married his first wife, Susana Troetsch, and gave birth to Hartmann Troetsch, the founder of Hartman Manor. Then Hartmann Troetsch inherited his father's farmland from 1940 and began to prepare the land and created the history of Hartman Manor to this day.

The first ancestor of the Hartman family, Alois Strasil Hartmann, first reclaimed the coffee growing area in the Walken region of Panama, and then the second generation Hartmann Troetsch moved the coffee cultivation to the Santa Clara producing area and officially founded Hartman Manor.

At the initial stage of reclamation, Hartmann Troetsc decided to retain most of the original woodland in the manor, and this concept of primary forest conservation has always influenced the third generation of manor owner Ratibor Hartamann, who is now in charge of management. Now Hartman Manor still maintains this tradition, the coffee planting land in the manor accounts for only about 20% of the entire manor, due to the results of woodland conservation, the manor has a considerable number of native birds, and the most famous big-billed bird in the area has naturally become the standard Logo of the manor.

In addition to its own estate, the Hartmann family also provides management services for nearby estates, such as Ninety Plus's estate in Panama and the mule estate (Finca La Mula-) are managed by the Hartman family.

Although the melon and fruit is the new estate of the Hartman family, it is not the first time that the manor has won the championship of BOP. In 2020, the summer sun roses of the melon and fruit estate won the hearts of a group of judges with their charming flavours of jasmine, roses, champagne, candy and bergamot.
