## What the Brand Says

> Catuaí – Panama A layered, tropical Catuaí with remarkable clarity and sweetness from Panama. A standout micro-lot from Abu Coffee in the hills of Boquete, Panama, this Catuaí offers a juicy, fruit-forward profile built through an exacting and playful fermentation journey. The cherries were hand-harvested at perfect ripeness and sorted by flotation. Following careful hydration and an extended anaerobic phase, the coffee is dried slowly under the sun — a process that amplifies the aromatics and complexity without sacrificing clarity. Cup Profile: Black cherry, purple grape, mango, passion fruit, pineapple, panela, caramel — balanced with a lively citric acidity and a long, clean, juicy finish. ABOUT THE COFFEE Details Origin Boquete, Panama Farmer Jose Vallejo Variety Catuaí Processing Natural double-phase anaerobic (rehydration + extended ferment + sun dry) Altitude 1550 MASL Profile Mango, purple grape & panela
