SPECIALTY COFFEE TOURS

BOQUETE - PANAMA

Discover the enchanting world of coffee growing at the Finca ‘Bocas del Mar’ farm in Boquete, Panama.

Experience and learn about various coffee varieties, including Caturra, Catuai & Geisha, and the processing methods from coffee cherry to coffee bean.

Our expert guide will share insights about the different coffee varieties you can admire along the trails. In a small group, we will hike among the coffee plants, surrounded by breathtaking views that reach as far as Costa Rica and the ocean on a clear day.

During the tour, our specialised guide will provide you with information about growing coffee, where you will also get to pick and process coffee berries yourself according to the "washed" method using our "depulper," making the tour interactive.

We will conclude with a cupping session (coffee tasting) of Bocas del Mar coffee, where you will go deeper into the roasting process, brewing coffee, and learn to taste coffee professionally. Different taste aspects of the coffee are explained, such as aroma, flavour, body and acidity, using a cuppingsheet.
