One of the first ever Panamanian coffees we had the pleasure of roasting, and it  did not disappoint. 


This lot from Hacienda Barbara is an articulate expression of Panamanian terroir. We selected this lot for its structural clarity, and its clean, sweet finish. Elevated by a traditional washed process it delivers a clean, yet subtle vibrancy and layered sweetness in the final cup. 



In the cup we're tasting: sweet plum, apricots, almond and red apple.
