Price not usable
Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.

How it sits among coffee from Panama
Glass Coffee describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, citrus, floral. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Panama; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Panama, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
