The territory is S-shaped to connect North and South America, and the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans from north to south. It is known as the "bridge of the world". [5] Panama has a land area of 75517 square kilometers, a land length of 772km and a width of between 60km and 177km. The coastline is 2988 kilometers long and the land boundary is 555 kilometers long. In terms of longitude and latitude, Panama is located between 7 °and 10 °north latitude and 77 °to 83 °west longitude. Panama is rich in mineral resources, but it is not exploited much and the mine scale is small. The main minerals are gold, silver, copper, iron, mercury, bauxite, manganese, salt, oil and so on. The reserves of copper, salt and bauxite are relatively large. As of 2013, Panama has more than 200 million tons of copper ore, ranking fourth in the world. The proven copper reserves can be exploited for 50 years. The national emblem of Panama was launched in 1904 by a brown eagle with its head held high and its wings spread.

The T-pick and shovel on the upper right represent the country's call for active construction and hard work; the sheep's horn overflowing with gold coins and the golden two-winged flywheel symbolize the progress and prosperity of the country. Four national flags are decorated around the national emblem, and the top nine golden five-pointed stars represent the nine provinces of Panama

Coffee was first brought to Panama by European settlers in the 19th century. In the past, Panamanian coffee did not have a very good reputation, and its output was only 1 / 10 of that of its neighbor Costa Rica, but now the coffee industry's focus on boutique coffee has made Panama more and more interested in growing coffee. Panama's geographical advantage is that it has many distinctive microclimate areas suitable for coffee cultivation, and Panama also has many persistent and professional coffee growers. This means there will be a lot of very good coffee in Panama, but these coffees are often associated with high prices.

The high price of coffee in Panama is mainly caused by the following factors:

Land price: for the people of North America, they very much want to buy a stable and beautiful land at a low price. Panama is such a place where there are many excellent estates in the Pokuit producing area, except the famous Emerald Manor, Alida Manor, Aqaba Manor and so on. They all produce high-quality boutique coffee. This is not only due to the superior ecological conditions of the Pokuit region of Panama and the fertile volcanic ash soil of the Baru volcanic land. Another important factor is that the microclimate in the Poquet Heights of Panama is a unique and important resource for boutique coffee in the Pokuit region. This is the Panamanian environment from east to west, which allows cold air to converge above 6500 feet through the Central Mountains, thus creating a variety of microclimates in the Pokuit region, making its temperature and rainfall very suitable for plant growth. so the coffee trees grown here are in very good condition, so in the land of Pokuit, there is a bean with a very high performance-to-price ratio. And it has a very beautiful name-Flower Butterfly. She has 40% high-quality Rosa pedigree, which is composed of Rosa, Kaddura and Kaduai. It is planted in the Baru volcano region of Pokut and grows in the volcanic area at an altitude of 1600 meters. The treatment plant uses fine washing treatment. Panama's special local microclimate leads to abundant rainfall in this area, and a large temperature difference between day and night, coupled with the unique volcanic rock and soil of the volcanic area, as well as meticulous harvesting and fine treatment. Make this coffee excellent in terms of thickness, acidity and floral fragrance. On the basis of excellent quality, the price of this coffee bean is very close to the people. What is special about this coffee bean is that it is made up of three varieties, of which 40% are rosy summer varieties, giving this coffee a distinct rosy summer flavor. According to the information obtained, due to the historical reasons of the manor, in order to pursue yield at that time, the early Rosa varieties were mixed with the coffee trees of Kaddura and Kaduai, and in order to facilitate picking, coffee farmers did not reclassify them, but directly mixed the three varieties. After that, as Rosa rose to fame and the price soared, the processing plant began to carry out fine washing treatment for such a coffee bean.
