INTRO
Rose Coffee first connected with Wilford during a cupping session at Lamastus Estates — his meticulous approach to his shade-dried naturals stood out immediately. This Catuai, grown at over 1600m, matures slowly and ripens well, delivering sweetness in the cup. The Panama terroir really makes this Catuai shine.
THE PRODUCER
Wilford Lamastus operates Elida Estates in Boquete, Panama, where his meticulous approach to natural processing has established him as one of Panama's most respected producers. Growing at over 1600m, his Catuai develops slowly and ripens fully, contributing to the sweetness and clarity in the cup.
THE PROCESS
The Natural process at Elida Estates involves:
- 🍒 Harvest — Cherries hand-picked at peak ripeness
- ☀️ Drying — Dried slowly on raised beds to preserve clarity
- ✅ Sorting — Extensive sorting to reduce quakers and enhance fruity expression
This gentle dehydration allows the fruit-forward sweetness to deepen without overwhelming the varietal's expression.
THE CUP
A classic Panama Catuai — don't expect Geisha intensity, but it delivers great sweetness and flavour clarity. Rose Coffee worked extensively on roasting and sorting to reduce chocolatey and nutty notes, bringing up the brighter fruity expression.
Flavour Notes
- 🍑 Apricot
- 🍊 Orange
- 🌸 Floral
- 💧 Juicy
- 🍯 Sweet
