Incht Manor has become a world legend for the quality of its coffee, winning a total of 14 awards in the decade of participating in the Cup Of Excellence competition, far more than any other estate in the world. At first, Incht was famous for its bourbon beans, but in recent years it has been the sudden rise of Pacamara beans in the Pandora district of the manor.

Incht, named after the local fruit, has been growing coffee since 1900, run by the Aguirre family, and is now in its fourth generation. The manor covers an area of 720 hectares, with coffee-growing areas ranging from 4800 to 6500 feet. to this day, the manor still retains a large area of pristine rainforest, covering an area of 470 hectares, which is unmatched by other estates. Shade planting, there are different plants covering coffee-producing areas, so it has been highly certified by the tropical rain forest. Incht's Pacamara accounts for only 8% of coffee plantations, but takes credit for Incht, which is distributed in three different producing areas:

Pandora, Patagonia, and LaCalaca

Among them, the quality of Pacamara produced by Pandora is the best, almost all of them can get a cup test score of more than 90 points, which is also the source of CoE champion beans. La Calaca is famous for its Geisha.

The most amazing thing about Incht lies not only in winning many bids, but also in the diversity of coffee beans. In addition to the world-famous Pacamara, Incht can send out players such as Rose Summer, Round beans, Elephant beans, and even Mocha. This is closely related to the manor's careful study of different microclimates, soils, coffee beans and the use of science and technology. Starting from this year, they have QRcode on every bag of raw beans, allowing bakers to track down origin information at any time, which can be said to be a major breakthrough in the coffee industry.

Incht is also one of the few manors with its own online bidding, which is on a par with the Emerald Manor of Panama and is a must for raw bean merchants all over the world. Since 2011, Incht has offered bids for the best quality coffee batches, called Reserva del Comendador? (selected coffee), these batches are painstaking from variety cultivation, planting, harvest to post-production. During the harvest period from January to April each year, workers with twice the local wage are employed, and only ripe cherries are harvested in independent water treatment plants. Each batch is placed in a fermentation barrel for 36 to 48 hours, and then dried in the sun for 7 days, or 70 hours. Finally, the water content reached 10.5% Mel 11.5% by drying at 45 °C with a Guardiola dryer. After processing, it will be stored in the warehouse for at least 45 days before sending it to the professional cup for testing.
