Tasting Notes: Complex • Elegant • Fruity Finca Esplendorosa is a high-altitude coffee farm located in the Jaramillo area of the famous Boquete coffee region, Panama — one of the most prestigious areas in the world for producing exceptional specialty coffee. The farm is part of the historic Finca Lérida Coffee Estate, where the cool climate, volcanic soils, and cloud forests create ideal conditions for growing specialty varieties. Located in one of Panama’s most renowned micro-regions, Finca Esplendorosa is a symbol of quality, traceable origins, and a sustainable approach to coffee farming. The Pacamara variety, a cross between Pacas and Maragogype, produces large beans with extraordinary aromatic complexity. The natural process allows the fruit to fully infuse the bean, creating layers of flavour that unfold as the cup cools. This combination of terroir, tradition, and expertise makes the farm’s coffees some of the most elegant and sought-after microlots in the world of specialty coffee. Brewing Recommendation: Best enjoyed as a V60 pour-over or Chemex to appreciate the complexity. Pair with aged cheese or dried fruits for an elegant tasting session.
