INTRO
This exclusive Panama–ETH47 lot is the result of a remarkable collaboration between Apollon's Gold, their sourcing partner Jonathan Vaz Matias (JV), and producer Edgar Gutiérrez at Corpachi Farm. The ETH47 seeds were hand-carried from Costa Rica by Jonathan himself and cultivated specifically for this project in the Cordillera highlands of Panama.
Given the coffee's delicate yet remarkably dense bean structure, Apollon's Gold revisited their signature 2021/2022 roast profile to honour its complexity. Expect a brilliant opening of starfruit and honeysuckle, rounded out by a lush, mango-like sweetness.
THE PRODUCER
Edgar Gutiérrez cultivates Corpachi Farm in the Cordillera region of Panama at 1,450 MASL. The farm is part of a collaborative project with sourcing partner Jonathan Vaz Matias, making it a true producer–trader partnership built around an experimental vision: growing ETH47, a varietal rarely seen in Panama, in a terroir capable of expressing its renowned aromatic complexity.
The Corpachi ETH47 represents a genuinely rare gem in the specialty coffee world — a hand-curated, farm-specific lot that required cross-border seed procurement and intimate involvement at every stage of cultivation. Apollon's Gold describes it as a vibrant expression of both the farm and the cultivar in equal measure.
THE PROCESS
The Natural process at Corpachi involves:
- 🍒 Selective Hand Picking — Only peak-ripe cherry is harvested to ensure maximum sweetness
- ☀️ Whole-Cherry Drying — Coffee dries with the full cherry intact on raised beds, allowing fruit sugars to penetrate the bean over an extended period
- 📅 Extended Degassing — A rest of 30–50 days post-roast is recommended, allowing the sparkling wine-like acidity and dense fruit character to fully integrate
- ✅ Quality Sorting — Meticulous sorting and grading prior to export to preserve the lot's integrity
The natural process amplifies ETH47's inherent aromatic intensity, delivering a cup of sparkling, refined complexity that is both vivid and remarkably structured.
THE CUP
The Corpachi ETH47 is defined by a refined, sparkling wine-like acidity that underpins the entire cup. Starfruit brightness opens the palate before honeysuckle florals emerge, with the finish settling into a generous, lush mango sweetness that is both rich and remarkably elegant.
Flavour Notes
- ⭐ Starfruit
- 🌸 Honeysuckle
- 🥭 Mango
