Guagua Fruit Estate Gesha Coffee Beans

Guagua Fruit Estate is a specialty coffee farm in Panama. In the 2020 Best of Panama (BOP) competition, it won the championship with its delicate flavors—bursting with citrus notes and reminiscent of fine champagne.

The BOP is the world’s top green coffee competition, and beans that win here represent the highest quality in coffee. A farm capable of producing a championship bean can undoubtedly be considered among the best.

The BOP champion estate, Guagua Fruit, is located in Santa Clara, Bouquet region (Bouquet), Panama. It is a small-scale specialty coffee farm managed by Mr. Ratiborhs and Ms. TESSIE. The farm sits at an altitude of 1750–1800 meters, bordered by the Barú Volcano to the east and overlooking the Pacific Ocean to the south. Covering just 4.5 hectares, it is quite compact in size.

The estate owners created a brand-new specialty coffee brand for their family. Their first participation in the BOP was in 2020, where they won 1st place in the Gesha Process category (2020.BOP.GN.1. Black Panther). The following year, in 2021, they secured 2nd place in the same BOP Gesha Process category (2021.BOP.GN.2. Black Panther).
