There are many excellent estates distributed in the Boquet producing area. In addition to the famous Emerald Estate, there are also Elida Estate, Akaba Estate and other famous estates, all of which produce high-quality coffee. This is due not only to the excellent ecological conditions of Panama's Poquet region and the fertile volcanic ash soil of the Baru volcanic field. Another important factor is that the microclimate in Panama's Poquet highlands is a unique and important resource for fine coffee in the Poquet region; This is Panama's east-to-west environment, where cold air currents converge above 6500 feet through the Central Mountains, creating a variety of microclimates in the Boquete region, making it very suitable for temperatures and rainfall, so coffee grows very well here. Panama coffee is famous for the summer of Emerald Manor, and Emerald Manor is also famous for its growing area; Boquete in Chiriqui province. Boquete is a town in Chiriqui, in the province of Riquí, located near the border between Panama and Costa Rica, close to the famous Baru volcano, beautiful scenery, rich soil, climate and soil suitable for producing high-quality coffee. When the commodity price of coffee is relatively low, the Panamanian Fine Coffee Association organizes a competition called "Best Panama": coffee beans from different regions of Panama are evaluated and auctioned online. Esmeralda Estate has been growing a coffee called Geisha for many years, and this auction makes their coffee known to more people. From 2004 to 2007, they won the competition for four consecutive years, then won it again in 2009, 2010 and 2013. It continued to break records until it was priced at $21/lb in 2004, then rose to $170/lb in 2010. In 2013, a small percentage of sun-treated coffee was sold for $350.25/lb. No one questioned that this was the highest price ever paid for a single estate coffee.

Unlike some other high-priced coffees (such as cat poop and blue mountain), the quality of this estate's coffee is truly at 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 flavours make it tea. These are all derived from the advantages of the "Geisha" variety
