Notes on the farm from the importer:
Bambito Estate Coffee has been in the same family since the early 1900s. Alberto Sitton Rios acquired the farm from his father in 1945 in the mountains of Bambito, Chiriqui Province, Panama. The farm in Bambito was Alberto's passion as it was his way to continue a family tradition. Nowadays, Bambito continues to be a family business, in its fourth and fifth generation.
The coffee plantation is at an altitude between 1,660 and 1,800 meters, located between ewo national forest parks and crossed by two mountain ridges from east to west, creating two natural microclimates. These ridges protect the coffee trees from the summer north winds. The farm also has two water springs, which are the main source of water for the wetmill. Bambito has its own greenhouse and cupping room. The greenhouse is used to preserve coffee tree genetics and maintain a young plantation. The coffee process byproducts such as the pulp (skin) are used as a source of organic fertilizer. The cupping room is used for quality control. Bambito is committed to providing a healthy and social work environment, respectful of the land and the source of their outstanding coffee. They incorporate the community in a Social Responsibility Program, providing breakfast during the school year to the nearby elementary school students. Bambito also organizes a Christmas gathering during the holidays where they provide food and gifts to the whole community.
