The growing environment of Panamanian coffee

Panama coffee growing environment

Panama is a small country located in the heart of the American continent. The waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans wash over its beaches.

Panama is located at 9 degrees north latitude, at the confluence of the Central Mountain Range, where Mount Baru, one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, is located.

With an elevation of more than 11,400 feet, the surrounding land is rich in nutrients and fertile soil, providing sufficient conditions for the planting and cultivation of Panamanian coffee.

These uplands have the right microclimate, soil, temperature and altitude for the planting, cultivation and harvesting of a wide variety of specialty coffees. These coffees have jasmine, citrus, ripe fruit, berry, caramel, special sweetness, vanilla, chocolate and many other flavors.

Unique coffee.

The microclimate of the Panamanian highlands is the most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique.

The most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique is its microclimate. Panama's east-west environment allows cold air currents to flow through the Central Mountains and converge above 6500 feet, thus creating a variety of microclimates in the Boquete and Volcán-Candela regions, making them the main producers of Panamanian coffee. These specialty coffees are grown on nutrient-rich, well-balanced soil in the Baru volcano region.

Panamanian coffee is sorted and numbered in small batches designed to be small in volume for optimal management, and the sorting number allows buyers to understand and track information throughout the process.

Due to its small volume, Panamanian coffee products are based on specialty coffee. The country supplies its quality products to specialist stores in countries around the world such as Denmark, England, Greece, Norway, Sweden, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and the United States
