There are many ways of washing, but generally speaking, the floating beans are removed after the coffee fruit is picked, then the pulp is removed, and then the coffee beans are soaked in a fermentation trough. The enzymes in the water will soften the mucus attached to the peel of the coffee beans. Natural yeast will break down the sugar in the mucus, a process called fermentation. After the fermentation is completed, move the coffee beans to the sun field to dry. In the process of drying, you need to constantly turn the coffee beans to ensure the uniformity of the drying. Finally, the shell is kept in the warehouse, and some raw bean merchants place an order before shelling and bagging. The processed coffee tastes clean, emphasizing bright and lively acidity, as well as clear fruit flavor and floral aroma. What is more surprising is that on the basis of very excellent quality, the very people-friendly price of this coffee bean makes the performance-to-price ratio of this coffee bean. 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. In the land of Pokuit, there is a bean with a 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. It makes this coffee perform well in terms of richness, acidity and floral aroma.

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.

Unique coffee

Panamanian coffee is classified and numbered into small batches, which are designed to have a small capacity for optimal management, and classification numbers allow buyers to understand and track the entire process.

Because of its small quantity, Panamanian coffee products are based on special coffee. The country provides its high-quality products to specialized stores around the world, such as Denmark, Britain, Greece, Norway, Sweden, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan Province of China and the United States.

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 of this comes from the advantage of "Geisha". 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.

Altitude: 1100-1500 m

Harvest period: December to March

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

Boquete is a high-altitude volcanic area, because the Baru Volcano volcano brings quite fertile soil, towering terrain, cold and humid air, different sunshine, abundant rainfall, and rivers flow through it, creating high-quality Panamanian boutique coffee. This batch of coffee, grown in the same area as the Jade Manor, happens to be located in continuous valleys and ridges, so it forms several microclimates, and the coffee produced in different regions has its own flavor. Refreshing and comfortable citrus feeling, bright pattern-like Nanyang fruit feeling, delicate flower fragrance crisscross exudes a very elegant and generous flavor.
