Why Choose Panamanian Coffee?
A Rich Diversity of Processing Methods
Panama’s coffee production is distinguished by its variety of processing methods, particularly for its Geisha lots, which are available in washed, natural, and honey-processed editions. This diversity in processing contributes to the wide range of flavor profiles, from the clean and bright notes of washed coffees to the sweet and complex characteristics of honey-processed beans.
- Washed Process: Offers a cleaner cup with more defined flavors
- Natural Process: Enhances the coffee’s body and sweetness
- Honey Process: Strikes a balance between the washed and natural, offering a unique taste

Timing is crucial in the coffee industry, and Panamanian coffee is no exception. The harvest period from January to April ensures that ICT can supply coffee shops with the freshest coffee beans possible, arriving just in time for a mid-year refresh of your coffee menu.
Exceptional Growing Regions
Panama boasts several coffee-growing regions, each contributing to the country’s reputation for high-quality coffee:
- Boquete: Known for its Typica variety coffees, Boquete’s beans are often described as fruity, medium-bodied, and complex, with a distinct spicy character.
- Mata de Minas & Volcan: Other notable regions that further Panama’s reputation for fine coffee, offering their unique profiles and qualities.
The Geisha Varietal and Beyond
Panama is celebrated for its rare coffee varietals, most notably the Geisha, originally native to Ethiopia. This varietal, along with others grown in Panama, tends to display more complexity and a distinctive character, setting Panamanian coffee apart from its neighbors, including Costa Rica.
