Secret Stash: El Bajareque Pacamara

Highlights

“Beneficio El Bajareque processes coffee from more than 100 small farms in Panama's western highlands, where the Best of Panama competition has set the bar for specialty coffee since 1996. The Pacamara -- the Pacas and Maragogype cross -- gets an anaerobic natural treatment: oxygen-free fermentation in the cherry before drying. This cup is nutty and delicate, with a hint of citrus and sugary sweetness.”
