Panama "La Berlina Estate"

  • Flavor Profile: It has a rich taste, medium acidity and full body. An awesome cup of coffee!
  • Certification: organic and shade grown

This certified organic and shade grown Panamanian coffee comes from La Berlina Estate, a small 55 acre farm located in the Boquete Province of Chiriqui (Valley of the Moon). This micro-region is heavily influenced by its proximity to both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The cool, frost free nights are followed by dry, sun drenched days which together create optimal growing conditions. This estate coffee is grown in rich volcanic soils under the shade of the natural forest trees at about 4700 ft. above sea level.

La Berlina Estate Coffee Farm was founded by Mr. Segundo Diaz, a Colombian soldier sent to Panama to quash the separatist upraising in the beginning of the 20th century. When Panama obtained its independence, these soldiers were given the choice to return to Colombia or settle in Panama. As Mr. Diaz had fallen in love with the Boquete region and with a Boqueteña girl, he chose to stay and start a coffee plantation. In the mountains outside Boquete, the Diaz family found enough coffee bushes and beans to create an 80 acre farm. By the 1920s, having constructed a small sugar cane mill powered by a water wheel, grown corn, raised chickens and reared pigs, the family had established a “perfect, sustainable farm” for the family to live off.

Now managed by the Ruiz Family, La Berlina Estate Coffee still promotes the coffee originally planted from seeds in Boquete. The fourth generation of the Family continues to learn about growing and processing coffee, not just through the use of current technologies but also gaining experience from lessons learned from the past, with the goal of providing delicious coffee from La Berlina Estate to the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why is Tree Frog Coffees so popular?

    Tree Frog Coffees has become a beloved choice for coffee enthusiasts nationwide due to our commitment to quality and sourcing beans only from farms that use ethical and sustainable methods. We specialize in small-batch roasting, ensuring every order is carefully roasted to provide a quality product. 

  • Why are our flavored coffees so special?

    Our regular flavored coffees are crafted using organic, fair trade and shade-grown beans sourced from the Andes Mountains of Peru. 

    Our decaf flavored coffees are crafted with organic decaf Colombian beans that are decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process, providing a chemical-free coffee with all the flavor of one with caffeine. 

  • Where, when and how do you ship?

    We ship products anywhere in the United States using a variety of methods depending on the weight of the package and the distance from Texas. Most packages ship using USPS Ground Advantage or Priority Mail, but some of the larger boxes might go UPS Ground.  

    Orders are shipped the day after roasting and average between 4-10 days depending on the service used. So to be safe, allow a 2 week turnaround time so you don't run out of the good stuff :-)

    International Orders-these can be processed on an individual basis by contacting us through email.

  • Why are you called Tree Frog Coffees?

    At Tree Frog Coffees, we know just how important frogs are as indicators to all sorts of environmental problems.  Frogs can only survive in a proper ecosystem, so when the frogs start dying, there is a problem.  

    This is one of the main reasons why Tree Frog Coffees only purchases beans from farms that are using sustainable and ethical methods.  Not only is this better for the frogs, but the entire ecosystem, which of course includes us. 

    We’re saving the frogs and the farmers, one cup at a time!
