Panama SHB Boquete EP

This coffee comes to us from the Urriola family's specialty coffee farm, Los Urriola, in Boquete, Panama. Boquete is a valley on the eastern side of Volcan Baru, the tallest mountain in Panama. The valley floor is about 1000 meters above sea level and most of the coffee is grown on the slopes that surround the valley going up towards the volcano and into the central cordillera. Coffee is grown in some areas above 1650 meters.

Mr. José A. Urriola founded Los Urriola in the 1940s as a small coffee farm. Today, Los Urriola remains a family business. It is currently managed by Mr. José's grandson Carlos Jr. and his son, Marcos.
