  „The coffees in this month's cupping represent ten of the top eleven finalists from this year's Specialty Coffee Association of Panama cupping competition. Coffees that come before the Coffee Review panel are always pre-selected in one way or another, either by the coffee growers themselves or by the coffee dealers who submit the samples to the Review. But this set of coffees has been subject to a particularly rigorous and formally organized selection.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide

  „It depends. If you are a committed aficionado who treats coffee as a specialty beverage parallel to wine, even the Keurig, with its relatively generous range of available coffees, will feel as constricting as a Blockbuster video store to a film buff. And the Melitta and Flavia, with their small, sad selection of drab coffees, might be like, what, selecting films only from the top rack of the action section. Plus, the only way an aficionado can get a strongly brewed cup of coffee out of the Keurig home machine is by pulling the cup out from under the spout before the brewing is concluded and (deftly one hopes) slipping another cup in its place to catch the flavor-weakening leftovers.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide

  „Panama is a relatively new player in the specialty coffee market. The best Panama coffee is grown in the Boquete region, just south of the border with Costa Rica. Although processing methods are technically advanced, growing practices tend to be traditional, and the majority of Boquete coffees come from trees of the traditional typica variety grown in shade.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide

  „Ecuador produces substantial amounts of coffee, but little seems to appear in specialty stores in the United States. By reputation it is a generally unremarkable coffee, with thin to medium body and occasional bright acidity.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide

  „Notes: The Roasterie is a leading, quality-oriented specialty roaster that emphasizes its commitment to "air roasting," a technology utilizing a column of hot air rather than the conventional turning drum to agitate the roasting beans. Roasterie president Danny O'Neill is an indefatigable coffee traveler and farm visitor whose travel and generous personality has facilitated this and several other well-established "relationship" coffees. Proceeds from the sale of this coffee over the past five years have helped build a community center. Visit www.theroasterie.com or call 800-376-0245 for more information.“

  „I'm curious to know if anyone here has experimented with the auto tampers available such as the Macap. Might they represent a good compromise between the Swift and traditional hand tamping?“
