About This Coffee

This Natural-processed coffee comes from the Rio Cristal Estate in Chiriquí Province, Panama's Boquete region, at 1,800 meters altitude. Planted with Green Tip Geisha variety at an exceptional 2,000 masl, the beans benefit from slower cherry maturation. The estate's unique microclimate, shaped by consistent rainfall and the Bajareque mist, yields delicate and nuanced flavors. Notes of peach, apricot, red currant, and maple sugar create a sweet, bright, and elegantly lingering cup.
