The price of everything imported from overseas is going up for reasons you could understand if you were a billionaire. The rest of us will just have to dig a little deeper into the coins in the sofa to pay for necessities such as coffee and Danish ham.
Meanwhile, have you tried Panamanian Geisha coffee? It made the news again for being the most expensive java at the 2025 Best of Panama international online auction. Sip on this: they ask for (and get) $13,705 per pound for these beans.
You can save 45 cents if you have a coupon, though.
Some dude from Dubai shelled out for the coffee that won; it was grown by Hacienda La Esmeralda in Boquete, Chiriquí.
That's a new record for coffee anywhere.
This Best of Panama competition is an international specialty coffee competition and auction put on annually by the Specialty Coffee Association of Panama.
Rachel Peterson represents the winning farm, and she calls the result "a recognition of the effort of our entire team and the dedication Panama has put into cultivating excellence."
Coffee people say that Panama - especially in the highlands of Boquete and Volcán -- is great for growing coffee, since their altitudes are over 4.900 feet and the soil in enriched with volcano dust.
Oh, make mine tea, please. Hold the lava.
