La Vanguardia is a family-owned farm in Palmira, Boquete, Chiriqui, Panama. With a legacy spanning four generations,the family is dedicated to crafting the finest specialty coffees. Nestled in the idyllic surroundings of Boquete, the farm meticulously cultivates prized varieties like Catuai, Pacamara, and Geisha, ensuring a unique coffee experience. Located at around 1200 meters above sea level, with a temperature range from 14ºC to 26ºC, the farm benefits from its sandy-clay-loam soil type and the tropical rain high forest climate.

The Pacamara variety originated from a cross between Pacas and Maragogipe. It is often used for competitions due to its high cup quality. It has a strong pallet of flavors for the creation of beverages. The natural sundried method, also know as the “natural process” or “dry process”, involves allowing coffee cherries to dry entirely without the use of water or machinery to eliminate any fruit. Initially, the cherries are harvested and carefully sorted to eliminate any under-ripe or overripe fruit before the drying process begins. This process intensifies the flavors of the coffee by utilizing the pulp while drying.
