AgroNosotros (AgN) invites you to a fun and educational weekend in Boquete, Panama.
Come and visit some of our 12 coffee farms, our 100,000 coffee sapling nursery, state-of-the-art wet and dry coffee processing facility (beneficio in Spanish), coffee grading and evaluation laboratory and “worm hotel”!
New Addition! We recently acquired our first 2 cacao farms in Panama to add to our 5 farms in Belize. Now, instead of having to travel to Panama for a coffee tour and Belize for a cacao tour, investors can learn all about the specialty Coffee and Cacao business from seed to bean to finished product all in the same tour and in one single trip to Panama.
(Belize field trips are coming back soon, so stay tuned)
After visiting the farms and beneficio, we will take you to The Perfect Pair, our specialty coffee and artisanal chocolate shop. Here, you will learn the “Secret Sauce” behind how we practice our unique “Art of Coffee and Cacao Science.”
These group tours are your chance to come and visit Panama, get to know us and our team, walk the farms and experience each step in our vertically integrated “seed to bean to bar/cup” process.
You will enjoy the delights of Panama and profit from the education you will receive about 2 of its most famous products, specialty coffee and chocolate.
Your amazing and unique specialty coffee and cacao discovery adventure begins when you arrive at David Airport (Enrique Malek) DAV.
Our team will be waiting to collect you at the arrival gate and will take you and the rest of our intrepid travellers up to Boquete, about a 45-minute drive up a new 4-lane highway.
You will be spending the next 4 nights in Boquete at our Host Hotel, Boquete Luxury Mountain Villa.
On Friday after lunch you will get to hike around your first coffee farm, Finca Horqueta #1.
A beautiful, high-altitude coffee farm and the 3rd farm we acquired back in 2015.
This is the perfect example of a coffee farm midway through renovation. It has a mix of older trees that we inherited and thousands of baby saplings that were planted over the last few years and are now producing amazing specialty coffee!
Here you will also see the new and improved workers accommodation, now fitted with running water, flush toilets, gas stove kitchen, electricity, real beds and 5-inch mattresses. All provided as part of our socially sustainable program for the farmers.
This is the very first farm we acquired back in January 2015, and where our roasted coffee brand gets its name.
On an action-packed day on this farm, you will visit our sapling nursery and receive a demonstration and explanation of how we select the best seeds of the most in-demand varietals.
With a guided tour of our beneficio and laboratory, we will take you through each stage of the post-harvest coffee process, from the time the ripe red cherries arrive from the farms to the exportable green bean.
We will explain how we operate a fully closed-loop system in which nothing goes to waste and nothing affects our surrounding environment.
In our vermicomposting system, the coffee cherry pulp is collected, treated and fed to thousands of Californian Earthworms in our on-site “worm hotel”.
The dried coffee parchment is kept and stored then used to power the furnace that heats the dryer that dries the coffee, the following year.
You will get to see more worker accommodations, meet some of the kids who live on the farms and get a feel for what it is like to be a real coffee farmer.
For years we have hosted separate coffee and cacao tours, Coffee in Panama and Cacao in Belize, where we have 5 farms, post-harvest facilities and one of our factories.
Now, with the addition of 123 hectares of prime farmland in Chiriqui Grande, we are developing our first cacao farms here in Panama. We built our own on-site nursery, the farm is now 100% planted, and over the next year or so, as we approach production, we will build the post-harvest facilities on the farms as well.
The new Panama chocolate factory is already up and running in Boquete, so you can learn all about the coffee and cacao industry in one trip and follow the entire process from seed to bean to finished product.
Our specialty coffee and chocolate shop, The Perfect Pair, is fast becoming the heart and HQ for our group of companies. This is where coffee and chocolate meet, as well as our Team! You will often find the accounting team meeting the farm management team, or marketing meeting the factory team. All over excellent coffee and some decadent hot chocolate.
As a real highlight of the tour, you will receive hands-on demonstrations of how you cup and grade specialty coffee. This will be followed up by a class on how to brew the perfect cup of coffee
Our chocolate-making factory is located right in The Perfect Pair, so now you will also learn how chocolate is made, from the fermented and dried cacao bean to the finished chocolate bars. And, you will even get to make your own chocolate bars to take home to your family.
