“Altieri pride themselves on producing quality coffees while improving the lives of everyone involved in this process." Ivica Cvetanovski Founder, Coffea Circulor, Sweden SCA SCORE 89.00 FLAVOR ALGORITHM AND DESIGN Ivica Cvetanovski Roasted light based on conduction and moderate heat application with world class skill and care. Extensive roast with high front up heat. Sparse energy application through the entire roast sequence with moderate changes in variable input. PRACTICAL VISION AND RENDITION OF ROASTING DESIGN AT COFFEA CIRCULOR There is one word in the Macedonian language (my origin is Macedonia, born and raised in Sweden), and that word is “sok”. That word has no other reference or synonym in (at least) the English language what I know. It can be explained as: “Remember when your Mom made juice from picked berries and fruits in the garden?” That is “sok”, possibly something similar can be “natural, refreshing fruit juice” in the English language. This is what I am making with the coffees and wish that people experience it like so: "The ideology in my roasting is to highlight natural flowers, fruits and berries while preserving important sweetness and integrating playful acidity creating long lasting memories."

Surrounded by the virgin cloud forests of the Baru National Park in an area known as Callejón Seco. This area consists of volcanic soil, drained on the slope of the volcanic mountain, at an altitude where winds from the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans collide creating microclimates different from the rest of the country. The growing area is surrounded by a cedar forest at Mimas Estate Farm in Callejon Seco, Boquete. This Catuai lot is located on a hill at the south east side of the Baru Volcano at an altitude of 1,750 masl. It has direct exposure to the sun and its soil is volcanic and fertile. This prize-winning coffee is arranged by our dear friends the Altieri family and is a prominent attendee at Best of Panama auctions. CONTRIBUTION, MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION Working close to with pre-releases of coffees enables us to fine-tune details in generating targeted experiences. Together with the Altieri family, we took on a naming convention for the Altieri Family of coffees and processes, present and for the future. Ivica: "As you also might have noticed, I named the coffees after your names. It stated with “Lily” when your father distributed the first coffees years ago now. Upon the first test, I found a high amount of florals in the Geisha natural. That would be the exception in respect to the naming convention. I have a naming scheme where natural processed coffees receive female names and washed coffees are governed by male names." In the words of Anna Lynn Altieri: "It is very thoughtful of you and makes it very personal. Actually, we are in the process of changing all our lots names from letters to the grandchildren nicknames. We are already producing new signs for the lots. For examples, Rafa, Rola, Yuyi, Ale, RR, Luci, etc. But I really liked your idea of putting Panama in front of the name, and I also love the idea of the females for the Naturals and Males for the Washed. Thank you very much for your creativity and ingenuity. If you don't mind we would like to implement your idea." FERMENTATION Hand picked cherries are harvested at peak ripe level.
