This is a distinctly traditional Panamanian coffee from a small family farm in Chiriqui, Panama. Boquete Classico is dedicated to the preservation of traditional, organic growing methods which yield distinct, high quality coffee beans with complex flavors and enchanting aromas. Operating under the auspices of Casa Ruiz, Boquete Classico has contributed greatly to the local community with socially progressive, economically sustainable, and ecologically friendly farming methods. Three generations have dedicated their lives to natural-system growing methods, producing the finest Central American coffee beans on the market.

What was once a single farm in Boquete is now a family owned & operated coffee crafting enterprise. Over three-hundred small-scale family farms partner with Casa Ruiz to process, roast, and market their coffee. The headquarters, located in the Boquete Valley at the skirts of the Baru Volcano, occupies Western Panama. The Ruiz Family is dedicated to cultivating the most consistently flavorful coffee possible, to maintaining a healthy natural environment, and to the sustainability of the farms and the region.

This new arrival is bright, crisp, and lively with a velvety mouth-feel and subtle, slowly-evolving flavor complexity. The cup is well-rounded with a fresh lemon start with hints of milk chocolate in the body and cocoa features that linger through the finish. Sophisticated nuances and honey-like aromas make this well-balanced, smooth coffee an ideal varietal for the coffee connoisseur and the uninitiated alike.

Casa Ruiz July 14, 2009
Reviewer: Stephen Kaczor from Edmonds, WA United States  
Hi Seth,
I'm in Boquete and walk past Casa Ruiz every morning, stopping in their farm's cafe for a cup of fresh roast on my way to town.  Among the many excellent growers here, Cafe Kotowa, Cafe Sitton, Cafe Duran & Cafe Finca Lerida, I can vouch that you are pulling the best roast from Boquete in Casa Ruiz.  If you want photos from Casa Ruiz, I toured their fields and facilities and I'm happy to send pics..  Ciao! Steve

smooth and delicious !!! January 18, 2009
Reviewer: Robert Rozier from West Columbia, SC United States  
Wow, I love this coffee !!  The above review I have to agree with... "velvety smooth" says it very well.  There is a lot to taste in this cup, and the finish is extremely smooth and light.

I loved this coffee a lot !  
Enjoy!

Velvety smooth May 3, 2007
Reviewer: Thomas Beasley from Phoenix, AZ United States  
This coffee is a great choice for those of you who find full bodied coffees just a bit too much.  I don't feel that it has a chocolate flavor, but more of a caramel finish to it.  I am sipping  it right now thanking Seth for getting it to me quickly so that I am not having to drink the Millstone c#@% that my wife brought home as an emergency measure.  Ah, sweet fresh coffee.
