Map of Panama

It is bordered by Costa Rica to the west and the Caribbean to the north. 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 between 77 °and 83 °west longitude. Panama is rich in forest resources and has many tree species, including mahogany, sequoia, teak, mahogany, cedar and other valuable timber. The forest area of Dalian Province in the east is the most widely distributed, but it has not been fully developed due to lack of market and for reasons such as national defense and protection of the natural ecological environment. [5] according to FAO estimates in 2010, the forest area of Panama is 4.29 million hectares, accounting for 57% of the land area. the Panamanian national emblem was launched in 1904 by a brown eagle with its head held high.

Panamanian national emblem

It stands on the national emblem with a white ribbon with the Panamanian motto "for the benefit of the world". In the middle of the national emblem is the brown isthmus of Panama, the blue Pacific and Caribbean seas, and the Panama Canal that connects them; under the blue sky, a bright moon has risen, the corresponding sunset is still shining in all directions, symbolizing the arrival of Panama's independence "at sunset and moonrise"; the silver sword and rifle crossed on the upper left have experienced the ups and downs of hundreds of years of war on Panamanian land. 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

When the commodity price of coffee was relatively low, the Panamanian Fine Coffee Association organized a competition called "Best Panama": coffee beans from different parts of Panama were ranked and auctioned online. Esmeralda Manor has been growing a kind of coffee called "Geisha" for many years, and the auction has made their coffee known to more people. Then they won the first place in the competition for four consecutive years from 2004 to 2007, and then won the competition again in 2009 and 2013. It kept breaking records until it was priced at $21/lb in 2004 and then rose to $170/lb in 2010. In 2013, a small portion of the sun-treated coffee was sold for $350.25/lb. There is no doubt that this is the highest price ever sold for a single manor coffee.

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 growing "Geisha", its coffee prices are always more expensive than other estates. The microclimate of the Panamanian highlands is the most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique. The most important resource that makes Panamanian coffee unique is its microclimate. The east-west environment of the Republic of Panama converges cold air over 6500 feet through the Central Mountains, creating a variety of microclimates in the Boquete and Volc á n-Candela regions, making it a major source of Panamanian coffee. These endemic coffees are grown in nutritious, balanced land in the Baru volcano region. Panama is a small country in the heart of the American continent. The waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans flood its beaches.

Panama is located at 9 degrees north latitude, the meeting point of the Central Mountains, where Mount Baru, one of the highest volcanoes in Central America, is located.

The Baru volcano has an altitude of more than 11400 feet, and the land around it is rich in nutritious and fertile soil, providing sufficient conditions for the sowing and cultivation of coffee endemic to Panama.

The appropriate microclimate, soil, temperature and height of these highlands are suitable for sowing, planting and harvesting a variety of unique coffees. These coffees have jasmine, citrus, ripe fruit, berries, caramel, special sweetness, vanilla, chocolate and other flavors.
