BCT Selection — Panamanian Specialty Coffee I Pick and Sign Myself
BCT Selection is a small line of Panamanian specialty coffee that I pick personally and trust enough to put the Boquete Coffee Traders name on. It is not a house blend or a budget line. Every bag is single estate, and the estate is named on the front: no anonymous blends, no mystery origin. You get our name, the producer's name, the altitude and the tasting notes — then the coffee does the talking.
I am Panamanian and have spent years sending the coffees of Boquete and VolcĂ¡n around the world. BCT Selection is the name I put on a coffee only when I would serve it at my own table. — Juan Carlos
The First Release: Geisha Washed From Café Don Benjie, Boquete
The line opens with the BCT Selection Geisha Washed 250g, a washed Geisha from CafĂ© Don Benjie in the Bajo Mono canyon of Boquete, grown at 1,500 meters on the slopes of VolcĂ¡n BarĂº. Medium roast, whole bean, with jasmine, lemongrass and caramel in the cup. It is the clean, floral, tea-like style that made Panama Geisha the most sought-after coffee in the world.
