Roaster's Notes

What a change over the last 15 years.
Today, many specialty coffee roasters seeking high-quality lots will start looking at Panama first - because they are simply that good, it's always an aspirational origin.
However, it's now a situation that has become much more complex - supply is restricted/limited, and the coffee is far more expensive.
We have always loved Panama coffees; just like Costa Rican coffees, they are so perfectly prepared - always on point.
But it's getting complicated, especially since the prices of raw coffee doubled in the last 18 months.
Panama coffee commands significant price premiums compared to other origins in Central and South America.
To range this coffee, we end up paying more dollars per kilo for Panama.
With limited supply and high prices, Panama has positioned itself out of reach in the global coffee market, except as a luxury indulgence and a special treat.
Panama's coffee industry's future would appear destined to continue on the same path.
Farming land is being taken over by the real estate and tourism industries, with coffee estate plantations reclaimed for housing and apartments.
It's a shame, actually - Panama produces lovely, consistently high-grade coffees.
A delightful note of poached apple and peach develops on the mid-palate.
For those of you who have never had an excellent Panama coffee - now is the time to get into it. We are still determining if it will find a place in our extensive portfolio in the future.
Grown at 1600 metres above sea level from Caturra varietal in dark volcanic soils surrounded by an ideal micro-climate.

Brew Recipe

Brew recipes are only intended as a rough and general guide. Always adjust recipe parameters to suit your own personal taste.

Dose - 18 grams

Yield - 36 grams

Time - 32 seconds

Ratio - 1 : 1.9

Guide - You can treat Panama coffee with a similar technique to Colombia and Peru. This is a washed lot with hard and dense attributes to require a slightly finer grind. We find the best-tasting extraction comes from a tighter shot.

Description

Rich Dark Chocolate

You will not regret ordering our delicious premium Panama coffee.

Panama produces truly magnificent coffees - silky smooth, creamy, sweet, rich and rewarding.

We freshly roast our excellent Panama Single Origin coffee daily at a precise medium level.

A roast optimized over 16 years to extract the best flavours, acidity and sweetness. It's bang-on every time.

Our excellent Panama Single Origin specialty grade coffee is available in 500g or 1kg packs as whole beans by default.

Or, if you require ground coffee to suit your coffee equipment, please select the type of grind needed before adding the item to your shopping cart.

It is an excellent coffee with incredible stone fruit, plum and rich, syrupy Dark Chocolate notes.

What we love about this great coffee are the hints of peach and dried apricots, accompanied by layers of beautiful caramel tones.

As a highly versatile coffee, our premium Panama will easily span black and milk-based recipes.

The cup is super sweet, with acids dancing on your palate.

It is one of the few single-origin coffees with almost perfect balance and symmetry.

Why are Panama Coffees regarded as the finest?

As one of the most highly regarded growing countries, Panama coffees exhibit excellent brightness with a clean fruit note at the optimal roast level.

Panama coffees are amongst the most expensive origins available globally.

Like Costa Rica, Panama has also suffered from a gradual reduction in land areas allocated to farming as the economy modernized.

The urban sprawl reaches out into lands that had previously been pastoral. Farming lands converting into residential developments, particularly for US retirees.

With less farming land, there is more pressure on the volumes of coffee harvested for each crop, as this origin remains in high demand due to its high-quality fine cup.

Panama now commands pricing almost double comparable to Colombia and other Central American origins.

It is a premium coffee, representing exceptional value at this price. 

Over the last decade, Panama coffee has become famous for the expensive and delicate Geisha varietals - at times commanding over $100/kg

mycuppa uses a full cast iron coffee roaster for maximum flavor and sweetness

Why our coffees are different

Our custom SUPA-ROASTA is a one-of-a-kind, fully cast-iron platform using the most advanced computer controls for ultra-precise roasting of the best-tasting coffees.
These days, complete cast-iron roasting systems are extremely rare. Only cast-iron platforms can impart that highly desirable soft, moist heat into the coffee beans.
Would the best chefs and BBQ experts cook their culinary delights on Stainless, Alloy or Mild Steel or Air ?
Nope, neither would we.
mycuppa's SUPA-ROASTA creates coffees with smooth, rich, high-flavoured tastes, full and syrupy body, fine acidity and of course our trademark long, sweet finish.
Nothing compares.

how we roast your coffee

Roasting coffee is a precise science. These days, computer profiles perform most of the automated tasks for controlling a roast profile. However, through better quality control via tasting, testing and optimization, we can make a big difference to the finished product through setting special parameters.

mycuppa explains the delicate balance when roasting coffees for exceptional flavors
Whole bean coffee stays fresher for much longer than ground coffees

Ground coffee is poor value

Whole beans are the only way to enjoy freshly roasted coffee.

The moment coffee beans are ground, most of the essential, active compounds in ground coffee oxidize rapidly, losing vitality, aroma, flavour and body.

Ground coffee barely lasts 15 minutes; even sealed packs lose more than 80% of the critical essence in 2 weeks.

Unfortunately, once you open and close that pack, it's game over, and the ground coffee continues to stale at 20x the rate of whole beans inside of a sealed, unopened pack.

If you love coffee, please don't waste money buying pre-ground packs; you only get a small part of the wonderful coffee experience.

Buy a decent grinder and purchase whole beans; it makes a huge difference in aroma, flavour, and enjoyment.
