Best of Panama
Best of Panama is a prestigious competition organized by the Specialty Coffee Association of Panama (SCAP), which rigorously evaluates coffee samples through a panel of international experts, emphasizing the core principles of specialty coffee in terms of quality and varietal characteristics.
Notably, the competition has played a crucial role in popularizing the Geisha variety, renowned for its delicate and complex flavor profile. It also encourages producers to continuously innovate in cultivation and processing. Winning coffee lots are often sold at exceptionally high prices in auctions, reflecting their superior quality and promoting the sustainability of Panama’s specialty coffee industry while maintaining the highest standards.
Additionally, the competition contributes to enhancing overall coffee quality and ensures that farmers receive fair compensation for their exceptional products.
