A Recognition Of Our
High Quality Coffee

Part of reaching our goal of producing quality coffee is getting recognition and becoming the best in what we do. We have proudly been part of many competitions that give us the opportunity of proving ourselves and challenging us to improve our coffee.

The “Fundación de Cafetaleros de Tierras Altas y Renacimiento” (FUNCATARE) celebrates the Panama Coffee Weekend where coffee producers from Tierras Altas and Renacimiento join together with coffee lovers nationwide.

Some of the activities of this event are seminars on barismo, coffee tasting, competitions of different coffee categories and much more.

FUNCATARE’s objective is to strengthen the coffee industry through the organization of events such as the Panama Coffee Weekend, workshops and symposiums that promote the added value to the product of Tierras Altas and Renacimiento.

It also seeks to integrate farms and visitors through agro-tourism and gastronomic tourism, strengthening human resources and potential in the region.
