芭比朵庄园咖啡(Bambito Estate Coffee )成立于1945年,在2006年的巴拿马最佳咖啡比赛(BOP)中荣获第二名。这片
自然的瑰宝之地,成为世界咖啡圈里冉冉升起的一颗巨星。
咖啡种植园的海拔位于1660到1800米之间,平均温度20℃,拥有火山土壤和位于两个山脊之间的地理位置共同形成了独特
的微气候。
优越的地理位置、和煦的阳光照射、温和的北风让这里种植的卡杜拉、卡杜艾、波旁、铁皮卡等咖啡豆种呈现出平衡的巧克
力、柑橘、浆果的风味。
种植在农场最高处的瑰夏每天在慢慢升起的阳光的照射下,具有甜蜜的柑橘、佛手柑、花香和青柠的杯测品质。
巴拿马咖啡的地理环境意味着境内咖啡产区有不少独特的微气候,其中有不少极具能力且致力于咖啡的生产者,因而当地拥有许多质量绝佳的咖啡,当然相对也要价不菲。
The geographical environment of Panama means that there are many unique microclimate in the coffee producing areas in China. Many of them are very capable and committed to coffee producers. Therefore, there are many excellent coffee brands, which are relatively expensive.
咖啡的高价格一方面也来自另一个重要因素:房地产。许多北美洲人都希望在这个政治稳定、风景优美且物价相对便宜的国家买房,因此土地需求极高,许多过去作为咖啡园的土地,现今成为外侨的住家。巴拿马在对劳工保障的法案上也有较高的标准,咖啡采收工人的薪资较高,这些费用也间接转嫁到消费者身上。
The high price of coffee, on the one hand, comes from another important factor: real estate. Many people in North America are in the hope that this political stability, beautiful scenery and the price is relatively cheap to buy the country, so the land demand is extremely high, many of the past as a coffee plantation land, now become alien homes. Panama also has high standards on labor security bills, and coffee harvester pay is higher, and these costs are transferred to consumers.

谈及咖啡价格,巴拿马的一座咖啡园绝对不能不提。世界上应该没有哪个庄园能像翡翠庄园(Hacienda La Esmeralda)这样对中美洲咖啡产业有如此重大的影响。此庄园由彼得森(Peterson)家族所有。
Talk about the price of coffee in a coffee garden in Panama. No manor in the world can have such a significant impact on the coffee industry in Central America, like Hacienda La Esmeralda. This manor is owned by the family of Pedersen.

过去在国际商业咖啡价格偏低时,巴拿马精品咖啡协会便举行了一个名为“最佳巴拿马咖啡”(Best of Panama)的竞赛:来自巴拿马境内不同咖啡园最优异的咖啡豆依据评比排名,接着上网接受竞标。
In the past the international coffee trade price is low, Panama Specialty Coffee Association held a "best Panama coffee" (Best of Panama) competition from the territory of Panama the most excellent coffee garden coffee beans on the basis of different rank, then accept online bidding.
翡翠庄园很多年前便种了一个名为瑰夏的独特品种,加入竞赛后,他们的咖啡开始被广大的客户群所认识。2004——2007年连续四年都赢得奖项;接着在2009、2010以及2013年单一品项上赢得竞赛。从一开始,此庄园的咖啡便打破纪录:2004年每磅21美元,到2010年更攀升到每磅170美元。该园有一小批日晒处理咖啡更在2013年卖到每磅350.25美元,无疑成为全球最昂贵的庄园咖啡。

不同于其他超级高价的咖啡(如因新奇热潮炒作的猫屎咖啡,或部分牙买加蓝山咖啡),这座咖啡园得以获得高价的原因在于咖啡质量确实极高,当然需求量大以及优异的营销策略也是重要的原因。这个打破众多纪录的咖啡品种口感相当特殊;花香与柑橘香丰富,但相当清爽,带着如茶般的醇厚度,是此品种的独特性。
Unlike other super expensive coffee (as a result of speculation boom novelty cat feces coffee, or part of Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee), a coffee plantation to get high quality coffee causes is really high, of course, demand and excellent marketing strategy is also an important reason. The coffee variety that breaks many records is quite special. Its fragrance is rich with citrus, but it is quite refreshing. Its thickness is thick with tea, which is the uniqueness of this variety.
从巴拿马及中美洲其他国家开始种植瑰夏便不难看出此庄园的影响。对许多生产者来说,瑰夏品种似乎是高价位的保证;从瑰夏多半可以比其他品种卖到更高价格的情况来看,这或许没有错。
From Panama and other countries in the Americas began planting rose in summer it is not difficult to see the effect of the manor. For many producers, summer rose varieties seem to be high price guarantee; from the summer rose mostly than other varieties to sell a higher price situation, perhaps this is not wrong.

产销履历 /Product sales resume/
一般来自巴拿马咖啡都会拥有相当完备的产销履历。咖啡通常可以追溯到单一庄园。除此之外,从特定庄园产出独特批次咖啡豆也较常见,像是以特别的采收后处理制作或来自某咖啡树衍生出的特别品种。
