In 2011, Katarina and Pedro began their venture into the coffee industry by investing in a small farm on the slopes of Volcano Baru, in Boquete, Panama. This farm, dedicated to producing micro and nano-lots of coffee, leveraged the ideal climate of the region to grow beans of superior quality. Their commitment and expertise in coffee cultivation led to the creation of La Huella and Café de Panama. By 2020, during the global pandemic, they expanded by partnering with Nika and Jernej to open a La Huella branch in the European Union. This expansion allowed them to offer freshly roasted coffee beans, tailored to each order, to their customers who they consider as family. Participating in the Great Taste competition, their coffee has won over 20 awards since their first entry. Now competing under their own brand, Café de Panama – La Huella, they continue to receive accolades for their high-quality coffee. All the coffee they sell is sourced exclusively from their farm, ensuring that each batch is single origin. This practice allows them to preserve the unique flavors characteristic of their specific location in Boquete, influenced by the soil, climate, and altitude. These unique flavors are directly traceable and embody the farm’s commitment to quality and sustainability. Their focus on single origin coffee means that each unique flavor profile is produced in limited quantities, influenced by seasonal and climatic changes each year.
