Unlike some other high-priced coffee (such as cat shit, Blue Mountain), the coffee quality of this estate is really up to its price level, although high demand and market factors also play a role. This record-breaking coffee tastes unusual: bright and strong floral and citrus flavors, full of tea. All these come from the advantage of "Geisha".

This estate has led to the cultivation of "Geisha" in many coffee plantations not only in Panama but also throughout Central America. For many coffee farmers, this variety means a high price, and to a large extent, this perception is correct. Because as a manor that grows "Geisha", the price of its coffee is always higher than that of other estates.

Traceability of origin

Panamanian coffee has high traceability of origin. Generally speaking, the origin of coffee in Panama can be traced to a single manor or even to a field on the manor.

Flavor characteristics

The better coffee in Panama has citrus and floral aromas, bright taste, elegant and complex flavor.

Population: 3406000

2013 production: 6000 tons

The distinction between Panamanian growing areas mainly depends on the sales situation of coffee, but mostly on geographical distribution. In the past, coffee was widely spread, and the following areas are actually one area, but these areas are closely linked.

Boquete

This is the Panamanian region that we are most familiar with. The special mountainous terrain of this area forms a microclimate which is very suitable for growing coffee. Cool weather and frequent fog slow down the ripening process of coffee cherries, and some even say that the climate can already simulate high-altitude planting.

Altitude: 400-1900m

Harvest period: December to March

Planting varieties: Tibica, Kaddura, Kaduai, bourbon, Rosa, San Ramon

Candela volcano

The area produces a lot of food for Panama, as well as excellent coffee. This area borders on Costa Rica.

Altitude: 1200-1600m

Harvest period: December to March

Planting varieties: Tibica, Kaddura, Kaduai, bourbon, Rosa, San Ramon

Renacimiento

Another producing area of Chirqui province, bordering Costa Rica. This producing area is relatively small, so it is not the main producing area of Panamanian boutique coffee.

Harvest period: December to March

Planting varieties: Tibica, Kaddura, Kaduai, bourbon, Rosa, San Ramon
