The story of Erida Manor

Erida Manor, which covers more than half of the area in the reserved area of Panama National Park, is an ultra-high-altitude estate rarely seen in Central America. It grows coffee from 1700 meters to nearly 2, 000 meters according to the feasibility of the topography. It is famous for its "rich, delicious" spindle flavor.

Erida Manor belongs to its owner, Viveramostis, which grows three varieties, including Tibica, Rosa and Cattanon, which are cultivated in the nursery area. It was beautiful along the way to the manor, and the air became cold at 1700 meters, like walking in the mountains to enjoy a forest bath and breathe fresh air. The two thousand meters of the manor was steep, and after crossing the line, it reached the saddle, which turned out to be a flat open land, where the terrain could avoid the roaring mountain wind. Weaver said, this is the best place to grow rose summer!

Balu is a young volcano, more than 3400 meters above sea level, is an active volcano, surrounded by seven different micro-climatic zones, brewing a rich variety of ecology. The diverse microclimate has both advantages and disadvantages for coffee cultivation, but for Arida, her flavor is stronger and more obvious than most Panamanian beans, and the black berry aftertaste and changeable taste are the main reasons why diners love her very much.

However, the high-altitude terrain also has its drawbacks. For example, Alida, the average altitude for growing coffee is more than 1700 meters. Coupled with the low temperature at night, the coffee can not be harvested until five years after sowing, and the waiting period for harvest is very long. After entering the harvest period, the ripening period of coffee is often more than a month. Once the weather is abnormal before ripening, such as typhoons, heavy rains and other irresistible factors, it is well aware that heavy losses will be caused, but because the beans are not ripe, the quality insists on, the harvest has plummeted due to non-rush harvesting, and the risk is actually much greater than that of low-altitude manors.

Since 2006, Arida's selected batches have been ranked among the best Panama winning batches every year, with high prices year by year. Among the manors in Central America, Arida should be regarded as the most "Kenyan BlackBerry notes". Its black berry and long-lasting compound fruit flavor is often full of praise. The judges are also flocking to Alida's unique "delicious", which comes from "Umami". At present, many experts list "fresh taste" as one of the five tastes (sweet, sour, bitter and salty). The role of fresh taste is similar to monosodium glutamate, such as dried shiitake mushrooms, air-dried cheese and Kunbu. The freshness of coffee is related to a good "aftertaste", such as a long and pleasant aftertaste after sipping, which belongs to the feeling of delicious taste.
