Elida Estate has a total area of 65 hectares, more than half of which are located within the Baru Volcano National Park, 30 hectares of which are planted with coffee trees and the remaining 35 hectares are virgin forests.

Coffee is grown at altitudes ranging from 1670 to 1850 meters, making it one of the two highest coffee estates in Panama (the other one at this altitude would be Carmen Estate in the Vulcan Valley).

At this altitude, the low temperature delays the ripening of coffee berries by about a month, while the fertile volcanic loam provides sufficient nutrients for coffee, and the excellent microclimate brought by Baru volcano enables Elida Manor to repeatedly win cup tests.

In addition to creating good conditions for coffee cultivation, the Lamastus family, which runs Elida Estate, has planted many different native tree species on the estate, not only to shade the coffee trees, but also to provide a friendly habitat for birds. In terms of fertilization, Lamastus family uses artificial fertilization and small amounts of chemical fertilizers, but never pesticides and herbicides harmful to the environment.

In addition to Catuai, Typica and Bourbon, the Lamastus family also began planting Geisha varieties a few years ago. Despite this, Elida Estate's batches participating in the Best of Panama competition all use Catuai species, but they can still achieve good results repeatedly, which shows that their geographical environment and excellent post-harvest processing technology bring excellent quality and special flavor to coffee.
