"The renowned gesha coffee variety, originally from Ethiopia, has found its ideal terroir in Panama’s mountains, solidifying the country’s status as a producer of some of the world’s finest beans and inspiring a wave of specialty coffee shops across Panama City. Among them, Sisu Coffee Studio, located in a colonial-era house in Old Town, stands out as a trailblazer. Owned by the Lamastus family, who are also coffee farmers, it combines Nordic-style furniture with the charm of original adobe walls. Meticulously brewed pour overs and bold espressos feature various bean varieties, and the shop hosts immersive cupping sessions." - Jorge Chanis
