About: The Janson Farms story is truly an inspiring tale of perseverance and family values that has spanned three generations. It all began in 1926 when a young Carl Axel Janson left Sweden for Panama, where he fell in love with the land and started his legacy. His sons took over in 1990 and founded Janson Coffee, driven by their father’s values of quality, hard work, and love for the land, which they have continued to uphold to this day. Now led by Kai, Janette, and Miguel, Janson Farms continues to produce high-quality specialty coffee, including the world-renowned Panama Geisha variety. This lot comes from the farm, Hacienda las Lagunas. Named after its lagoons and wetlands and located west of the Barú Volcano, with rich volcanic soil and several natural springs. The different plots are surrounded by areas of a natural reserve which serve as natural barriers to protect the plantation as well as providing vital habitat for a large variety of birds and wildlife. This coffee is truly one-of-a-kind, harvested in only small batches and carefully handled to ensure its unique flavors are preserved.
