Panama Altieri Caturra Washed

Description

Panama Altieri Caturra Washed Farm: Altieri Altitude: 1300-1350 MASL Producer: Altieri Family Process: Washed Variety: Caturra Taste Notes: Plum, Tamarind, Liquorice, Brown Sugar About this Specialty Coffee Grown at altitude on the Altieri Family’s farm in Panama, this fully washed Caturra is a precise, terroir-driven cup. The washed process strips away fruit interference at the pulp stage, allowing the bean’s inherent varietal clarity to shine through — a hallmark of well-executed Caturra from high-elevation Panamanian soil. Roasted light by Julith to protect origin character, the cup opens with ripe plum and tamarind, layered over a soft liquorice spice and a rounded brown sugar sweetness. Structure-wise, expect a bright, lively acidity balanced against a mild, well-integrated bitterness, resolving into a clean, sweet finish that lingers on the palate. This lot rewards precision brewing — we recommend pour-over or other filter methods to fully express its acidity and varietal transparency. A refined, layered cup for drinkers who appreciate clarity and complexity over heavier, syrupy profiles.
