World of Coffee 2026: Exploring Boquete and Its Champion Far from US$439

Description

Geisha coffee arrived in Panama in the 1960s, but it was in Boquete that it found the ideal climate and altitude to develop its exceptional profile. Its global recognition came in 2004, when a local farm entered it into the "Best of Panama" competition, surprising experts with its aromatic complexity and floral notes. Since then, Boquete has established itself as the birthplace of the world's finest Geisha coffee, attracting coffee lovers looking to discover its history, cultivation, and tasting on award-winning farms.
