Coffee Origin & Processing

Here, about 50 coffee farmers form a small cooperative, all using traditional Boquete methods to produce coffee—allowing coffee to grow in a near-natural environment. Although the yield is not high, it maintains a rich ecological environment, and soil quality can be preserved or even improved. Natural cultivation methods not only benefit the environment but also allow coffee fruits to grow slowly, making it easier to produce high-quality coffee beans with excellent flavor. Farmers manually harvest complete coffee cherries and send them to the nearby Cafe de Eleta S.A. for post-processing. The processing facility is about 4 kilometers from the farm and includes a modern laboratory for cupping quality control and manual selection.

Regional Excellence

From a consistently winning region in B.O.P competitions!

Panama coffee originated in 1780 when European immigrants introduced the first Typica varieties. Located in Central America, with natural advantages of sunshine, land, and high mountains, plus ample labor force, this region has become an excellent area for cultivating high-quality specialty coffee—a true paradise for nurturing coffee. Particularly, Geisha variety coffee from Panama has led the global trend of specialty coffee, successfully attracting worldwide market interest in Panamanian coffee.

The Boquete region is Panama's oldest and most famous coffee-producing area, located on the eastern side of Baru Volcano, with an average altitude of 1000-2000 meters. The "Baru Volcano National Park" is an ecological conservation area with extremely rich biodiversity and multiple microclimates. Coupled with year-round mist coverage and abundant rainfall, this creates excellent local cultivation conditions, giving Boquete coffee its unique aroma. It's the region with the highest coffee production and best quality in Panama. During each harvest season, coffee farmers use refined washed processing and sun-drying methods, resulting in full-bodied coffee beans with pure flavor.

Baru Volcano is not only Panama's highest mountain range—early volcanic activity and eruptions created deposits that brought large amounts of extremely fertile soil. This soil is rich in nutrients, with volcanic ash particularly abundant in phosphorus and sulfur. Mixed with clay and combined with unique climate patterns, this area forms an environment suitable for high-quality coffee growth. Dense forests and numerous species create overall biodiversity.
