Coffee in this farm is only grown up to 1 850m (6000ft), in Panamá coffee does no grow higher than this elevation.
This coffee is produced under a unique world-condition for several reasons: first the farm is located at a very high elevation (one of the two-highest coffee farms in Panamá), it is grown in rich young volcanic soils, the temperatures are low, there is lots of fog and mist during the dry season, the coffee trees are surrounded by virgin-native cloudy rain forest, the nights get cold here thereby taking a tree from 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 years to start producing (2 or 3 years longer to produce than average), these low temperatures also extend the ripening time 1 month longer (thereby the development of the bean). All these unique growing conditions show in a distinguished cup.
Good sharp acidity and prune undertones and a citrus tangerine like finish.
