Panama Coffee’s Untamed Potential
Flying Pumas, Restoration, and Resilience
When the mountains heal, magical things happen. Like a second harvest of coffee that places 15th in the Geisha Washed category of the Best of Panama 2025. This is the story That’s the miracle of Flying Pumas — restoration and resilience.
Their estate, once scarred by logging, has been transformed into a thriving sanctuary where coffee flourishes next to native tree species. Each flavor and process is a testament to the volcanic soils of Chiriquí, Panama’s Volcán Region.
Of course, this natural mystique extends far beyond the plants and trees. Bordering the La Amistad Natural Park, Flying Pumas shares its 120-hectare lands with majestic big cats — such as the mountain lions that are its namesake. Only 60 hectares of which are dedicated to coffee, the rest returns to nature.
The wild charm of the Panamanian terroir is intact here, further elevated by the agricultural expertise of the indigenous Ngöbe-Buglé community. A collaboration that ensures every harvest
is not just a premium coffee lot, but a refined expression of the land’s history and people.
It’s a synergy that takes root in two exceptional lots that capture the essence of this untamed estate. Geisha Honey Lot 25064 features a profile of fresh tropical fruits paired with the delicate sweetness of floral honey, while the Natural Cold Ferment Lot offers a sophisticated balance of vibrant wild fruits and deep chocolate notes.
These coffees from Flying Pumas prove that protecting the environment allows quality to grow. So join us in experiencing how the restoration of an ecosystem translates into a cup of unparalleled clarity and grace.
