Sensory Perception and Physicochemical Characteristics of Geisha Coffee From Different Production Zones in Panama.

ABSTRACT: Coffee terroir highlights distinct characteristics shaped by its origin, giving it identity and added value that is especially appealing to consumers in specialty markets. Factors including environmental conditions, farming practices, and processing techniques are important in defining a product's origin. Unique characteristics from the previous factors have positioned Panama favorably in the specialty coffee market. Specifically, the Geisha coffee variety is Panama's most valuable coffee, but there is limited information on Panama's coffee terroir. This study aimed to determine whether there are distinct terroir qualities and if physicochemical or sensory attributes differentiate Geisha coffees across Panama production zones.
