    First (and possibly last) offering from one of our Panamanian friends, a coffee we seem to gravitate to yearly. This natural processed Geisha comes from the Kotowa farm in Panama, unquestionably one of the finest growers in the Panama Highlands, perhaps the top ranking coffee region in the world today. Separately, we are also offering a much lower priced variety from the same farm but this one is pure, floral Geisha, the exotic cultivar that is now synonymous with Panama's Boquete and Volcan, two high elevation cities, each on one side of the Baru volcano.

    The Kotowa farm, in its third generation, has several outstanding plots of land; this particular lot is from a portion of the farm called Las Brujas. We have had the pleasure of visiting Kotowa's farms, their old wetmill and their wonderful home, overlooking the beautiful Boquete mountainside and the Baru Volcano. Ricardo Koyner owns coffee shops too, located throughout Panama City and elsewhere in Panama, so much of Kotowa's production is used at home, reducing exportable quantities. In 2016 Cafe Kotowa was awarded the 3rd edition of the Best Producer Panama Cup which recognizes the producer whose coffees make it to the final round of each category in the Best of Panama competition. Kotowa is frequently in the top tier of coffees from Panama each year.

    In 2006, The National Environmental Agency presented Kotowa Coffee as the winner of The Panama National Award for "The Years Environmentally Cleanest Industry". They provide free medical attention for their workers, and for the children they have a nursery with meals and a school program. Kotowa's social programs for the children and families producing this great coffee has earned them recognition from UNICEF nine years in a row.
