Story
Hunter Tedman, a trailblazer in the speciality coffee industry, has profoundly influenced Panama's coffee scene through his partnership with the Rogers family. This collaboration spans three esteemed farms: Hacienda Barbara, Las Brujas, and Piedra Candela, situated in the acclaimed coffee-growing regions of Jaramillo and Piedra Candela. These locales are renowned for their high altitudes, between 1,200 and 2,100 meters, and fertile volcanic soils, ideal for cultivating the prized Geisha coffee variety.
Under Tedman's guidance, Hacienda Barbara has distinguished itself with pioneering yeast fermentation techniques at the Beneficio Bajareque processing plant in Boquete. This innovation has elevated the flavour and quality of their coffees, setting a new standard in the speciality coffee market. Las Brujas and Piedra Candela also benefit from these advanced methods, contributing to their repeated successes at the prestigious Best of Panama competition.
Tedman's dedication to excellence and sustainable practices has not only improved the quality of coffee from these farms but also bolstered Panama's status as a producer of world-class coffee. His work continues to inspire and set benchmarks in the global coffee community.
