Preseverence of Legacy
Beyond borders and across the ocean, Arkib continues its pursuit of coffees that move in step with our journey. Through direct trade, we value clarity, transparency and relationships built with purpose. Panama is often seen as the pinnacle of specialty coffee, but we look beyond reputation, searching for new voices that reflect ethical sourcing and shared intent. That path led us to Chevas Coffee Estate, a producer shaped by farming heritage and driven by young energy.
Founded in 2016 by José Luis, Chevas carries forward a family legacy through specialty coffee and careful experimentation. The estate grows Typica, Geisha and Catuai, each shaped by Panama’s landscape and refined through thoughtful fermentation. This season’s selection reflects our shared belief in craft, traceability and progress built slowly, one harvest at a time.
Chevas Typica Washed
This lot comes from Chevas’ Traditional Collection, showcasing Typica varietal in its purest expression. Washed carefully to preserve origin nuances, it highlights the clarity and elegance of the varietal. Ripe cherries are handpicked, pulped, sorted, and dried on raised beds inside a greenhouse. The result is a classic process that produces refined citrusy florals, a gentle sweetness, and a creamy, balanced cup that speaks of both place and craft.
Uncovering forgotten varietals like Typica always sparks our curiosity as roasters. As this varietal becomes increasingly rare, it excites us to see Chevas Coffee nurturing such an ancient Arabica line. Typica captures the essence of Arabica balanced, harmonious, and defined by exceptional clarity. It quietly tells the story of origin, heritage, and the care behind every cup.
In every sip, juicy white peach and mellow winter melon mingle with airy ceylon tea and a fleeting hint of mandarin orange
