Cupping Notes

Dried fruit aroma, rich fruit acidity, prominent sweetness upon entry, with notes of lemon, orange, cranberry, and green tea. The texture is uniformly smooth, gentle with subtle floral notes, and a long-lasting sweet aftertaste.

Catuai

Catuai is a coffee variety artificially hybridized from Catuai and Mondu Novo. Catuai has good resistance to natural disasters, particularly against wind and rain.

The Catuai tree variety is relatively low-growing. Compared to other coffee trees, Catuai fruits grow more firmly and are not easy to harvest. The fruits come in both red and yellow varieties. To date, no superior taste has been found in yellow fruits compared to red ones. In fact, some people have discovered in cupping that although coffee processed from some yellow fruits has good acidity, the cleanliness of the coffee flavor is inferior to that from red fruits.

Catuai was cultivated in Brazil and is now widely grown throughout Central America.

Panama Coffee Regions

Premium Panama coffee is grown in the western part of the country, near Costa Rica and close to the Pacific. Coffee produced in the Boquet district of Chiriqui province is the most famous, with Volcán, Santa Clara, and Candela also being well-known. Other regions include the David district, Remacimeinto district, Bugaba district, and Tole district. Only coffee grown at altitudes between 1300 and 1500 meters is considered specialty coffee.

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

BOQUETE

The Boquete growing region is the most famous Panama region. Its mountainous terrain creates many microclimates. The relatively cool weather and frequent fog help slow the maturation of coffee cherries, which some believe is similar to high-altitude climate conditions.

Altitude: 400-1,900m
Harvest: December - March
Varieties: Typica, Caturra, Catuai, Bourbon, Geisha, San Ramon

VOLCAN-CANDELA

The Volcán Candela region produces most of Panama's food and some amazing coffee. The region is named after the Barú volcano and the city of Piedra Candela, bordering Costa Rica.

Altitude: 1,200-1,600m
Harvest: December - March
Varieties: Typica, Caturra, Catuai, Bourbon, Geisha, San Ramon

RENACIMIENTO

Renacimiento is a growing region in Chiriqui province, bordering Costa Rica. The area itself is quite small, so it's not a major specialty coffee producing region in Panama.

Altitude: 1,100-1,500m
Harvest: December - March
Varieties: Typica, Caturra, Catuai, Bourbon, Geisha, San Ramon

The definition of Panama region coffee is based on how coffee is produced, not on geographical divisions. Previously, when coffee was more widely cultivated and the regions listed below were smaller and more concentrated, coffee beans produced could be combined as a single unit.
