Alto Lino • Altieri Specialty Coffee • Slow Dry Process Caturra

Eugene Altieri (Don Gene) started growing coffee in Boquete over 20 years ago. With no prior experience in the coffee industry but a keen business mind, Don Gene saw the potential for a thriving family business. The family's two farms, Alto Lino and Callejón Seco are planted with Caturra, Catuai, Typica, and Geisha. After Don Gene's retirement seven years ago, the family business is now run by his children, Anna Lynn and Francisco, and farm manager Roger Pitti. All of the Altieri family’s Geisha is planted at Callejón Seco, just to the Southeast of the Volcán Barú National Park, and the different tablons on the farm are named after Eugene’s grandchildren. This Caturra was processed using an anaerobic slow dry (ASD) method and has big tropical fruit notes.
