Every bean has a story
A great natural Catuai from Barú Black Mountain farm in Panama.
This coffee comes from the Barú Black Mountain farm. The farm stands at an altitude of between 1,200 and 1,550 m.a.s.l. Barú Black Mountain enjoys a privileged microclimate, enriched by volcanic soil, cloud forest mist, and cool mountain breezes. These conditions create an exceptional terroir that allows us the team to cultivate rare and expressive coffee varieties with vibrant flavor profiles.
Standing 3,800 metres above sea level, Volcan Baru overlooks the national park and marks the country’s highest point. The farm gets its name from the region’s very dark volcanic soil. It is to the west of the volcano, midway between the cities of Volcan and Rio Sereno. It is an ideal environment for growing coffee!
The estate in the highlands of Volcán is not just a place where coffee grows. It’s where stories are rooted, traditions are nurtured, and beauty unfolds in every sunrise.
From farmers and pickers to roasters and tasters — everyone is committed to excellence. The estate is a community, and every member plays a vital role in bringing the vision to life.
The farm practices sustainable, hands-on farming, combining traditional knowledge with modern techniques. They harvest selectively, process with intention, and constantly experiment to elevate quality without compromising the environment.
The team at the farm processes this coffee using the natural method, also known as dry process. It is a traditional technique that enhances sweetness, dense body, and fruity intensity. The team only selects fully ripe cherries at peak maturity by hand. The cherries dry whole, without depulping, for 19 days on raised African beds under partial shade.
The team at the farm turns cherries regularly throughout drying, to avoid over-fermentation and to ensure uniform moisture loss. This natural drying allows internal fermentation to occur within the intact cherry, concentrating sugars and developing vibrant, fruit-forward flavors in the final cup.
