Buying Tips

  • Region: Barú is Panama's highest peak; on its western side, Volcán and Candela offer high altitudes and rich volcanic soils, ranking alongside Boquete on the eastern side as Panama's main growing areas
  • Varieties: Beyond the famous Geisha, most Panamanian coffee is actually Catuai and Caturra, with a sweet, balanced style

Brewing Notes

  • Pour-over: Medium grind, 90°C, ratio 1:15
  • Iced: Strawberry and chocolate sweetness feels even fuller when chilled
