At such a high altitude, the low temperature delayed the ripening of the coffee berries, about a month later than the normal ripening period, while the fertile volcanic soil provided sufficient nutrients for the coffee, coupled with the excellent microclimate brought by the Baru volcano, Elida Manor was able to achieve good results in cup test competitions.

In addition to creating good coffee cultivation conditions, the Lamastus family, which runs the Elida estate, has also 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, the Lamastus family uses artificial fertilization and a small amount of chemical fertilizers, but never uses pesticides and herbicides that are harmful to the environment.

At present, in addition to Catuai, Typica and Bourbon, the Lamastus family also began to plant Geisha varieties a few years ago. In spite of this, Elida Manor used Catuai in all the batches of the Best of Panama competition, but achieved good results again and again, which shows the excellent quality and special flavor of coffee brought by its geographical environment and excellent postharvest treatment technology.

This batch of raw beans are treated in the sun, which is rare in Central America-dark red purple berries with peak maturity are artificially harvested and directly exposed to the sun for more than two weeks. The sugar in the berry pulp and the fermentation products of the microorganisms in the sun process are all concentrated and infiltrated into the coffee beans, giving this rare high-altitude Panamanian coffee a rich dry aroma of strawberries, cream and toast. and after the entrance of the coffee into a rich berry and tropical fruit mixed with vanilla, and peppermint cool grass, complex aroma, fruit elegant and charming With moderate sweet and sour taste and pleasant taste, Elida Manor is a rare delicious combination with a total area of 65 hectares, more than half of which are located in Baru Volcano National Park, with 30 hectares of coffee trees and the remaining 35 hectares of primeval forest.

Coffee is grown from 1670 to 1850 meters above sea level, making it one of the two highest coffee farms in Panama (the other estate with these elevations should be Carmen in the Vulcan Valley).

At such a high altitude, the low temperature delayed the ripening of the coffee berries, about a month later than the normal ripening period, while the fertile volcanic soil provided sufficient nutrients for the coffee, coupled with the excellent microclimate brought by the Baru volcano, Elida Manor was able to achieve good results in cup test competitions.

In terms of fertilization, the Lamastus family uses artificial fertilization and a small amount of chemical fertilizers, but never uses pesticides and herbicides harmful to the environment. Elida Manor is located in the Pokuit producing area of the western border province of Panama. The most famous landmark and tourist attraction of the province is the Baru volcano, which is 3300 meters above sea level, which is one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, with a total area of about 14000 hectares. It can be divided into 7 different microclimate zones according to the altitude, and there are many rare plants, birds and mammals inhabiting the volcano, so it is set up for the protection of national parks and forbids hunting and man-made development and destruction.

The Pokuit region is located on the eastern side of Mount Baru, a valley of lava flowing through Panama, next to another well-known coffee producing area in Panama, the Vulcan Valley (Volcan Valley).

Pokuit has always been the most high-profile coffee producing area in Panama, and there are many famous estates in the region-such as Esmeralda, which is famous for the Geisha variety World War I, Hartman, Mama Cata, Kotowa and Santa Teresa, which are always victorious by Best of Panama. Alida Manor itself is also a heavyweight star manor in the Pokuit producing area-it has won Best of Panama awards in the past five years, and its outstanding achievements are second only to the Emerald Manor [country introduction]. The planting conditions of Nicaragua are not inferior to those of Central American countries. When grown in shaded coffee at high altitude, it tastes round and balanced with less sharp acidity, and the main reason for not being famous is the war and hurricanes. As a result, a single farm could not be operated continuously, and there was no historical data for raw bean merchants to track and consult farm data, until the bad factors that led to the quality of coffee were removed after 2003, backward transportation was also fully built, and good coffee emerged one after another.

Nicaraguan coffee is grown in fertile volcanic soil, and SHG is the best harvested from 1500 to 2000 meters above sea level. The local climate belongs to alpine terrain, which is surrounded by thick fog all the year round and covers the whole mountain forest, resulting in a low-temperature, humid and humid climate. Years of mating evolution of tree species and insisting on the ancient and time-consuming treatment process retain natural acid and strong aroma. The shaded planting sunshine is uniform, and the coffee fruit grows slowly and indirectly absorbs the moisture caused by the thick fog, so the flavor of coffee beans is lively and changeable, such a good coffee growing environment. Therefore, the coffee bred has the characteristics of slightly sour and moist. After careful taste, the aroma of fruit and chocolate can be vaguely released from the throat, rich mellow and multi-level sweet taste, even with the simplest filter-drop brewing. It can also satisfy the desire of your taste buds, so that drinkers can't help but fall in love with the charming taste.
