{"product_id":"panama-carmen-estate","title":"Panama Carmen Estate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe two main coffee regions in Panama are Boquete and Volcan. Volcan is basically the Baru Volcano which is the highest mountain in Panama and has a surreal beauty and overlooks Boquete. Orchids naturally grow in the wild, rainbows are always present, everything is a lush green, and it has a jungle-like feel to it. Birdwatchers, hikers, anthropologists, photographers, etc all enjoy the beauty of Baru Volcan. This is where Carmen Estate exists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course all of the coffee grown on this mountain that I've ever had tried has been fantastic. Think of it as a Costa Rica, it has that balanced acidity, citrus undertone, and pleasant coffee taste. But it really is its own origin. The aroma of brown sugar\/coffee cake sets the stage, and then tastes of toffee, flowers and citrus leaves me very happy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep it out of the 2nd cracks. Even as you approach 2nd cracks, the bean has lost a lot of what makes it special. About 5 degrees past the ending of the first cracks is where you want to land. It takes a LOT of heat at the end of the roast and wants to stall out during the first cracks, so give it a lot of momentum going into the first cracks. If you like microlot El Salvador and Costa Rican washed process coffees, you'll really dig this one -- and you'll want to roast it pretty much under the same roasting curve and end points that you use for those beans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUS Arrival December 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"happymugcoffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39654267191384,"sku":null,"price":6.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0045\/8548\/8472\/products\/PXL_20211002_194158524.jpg?v=1738611423","url":"https:\/\/happymugcoffee.mom\/products\/panama-carmen-estate","provider":"Happy Mug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
