Panama Coffee Overview

Premium Panama coffee is grown in the western part of the country, near Costa Rica and close to the Pacific coast. Coffee produced in the Boquete district of Chiriqui province is the most famous, with Volcan, Santa Clara, and Candela also being well-known. Other regions include David, Remacimiento, Bugaba, and Tole districts. Only coffee grown at altitudes between 1,300 and 1,500 meters is considered specialty coffee.

Catuai Variety

Catuai is a hybrid of Mundo Novo and Caturra, essentially a second-generation cross. It inherits the advantage of Caturra's low-growing plant structure. The name Catuai comes from an indigenous word meaning "very good." As a member of the Arabica family, Catuai is relatively high-yielding.

Cupping notes: Dried fruit aroma, rich fruit acidity, pronounced sweetness on entry, lemon, orange, cranberry, green tea, with a uniform and smooth texture, gentle with subtle floral notes, and a long-lasting aftertaste.
