About Chevas Coffee Estate

Chevas Coffee Estate is a family-run coffee producer based in the highlands of Boquete, Panama. The family began farming in the Alto Chiquero area during the 1970s and moved more seriously into coffee production in 1996, later expanding into areas including El Salto and Alto Quiel. These mountain farms are known for their varied microclimates, shade and soils rich in organic matter.

José Luis Chevas represents the third generation of the family. Inspired by his grandfather’s work, he established Chevas Coffee Estate in 2016 at the age of 18. Today, he works alongside Adrian Villarreal, the 2020 Panama Barista Champion, combining agricultural knowledge with a barista’s perspective to develop distinctive Geisha microlots and experimental processing methods.

Processing method

For this lot, ripe Geisha cherries are processed using the natural method, meaning the fruit remains around the seed throughout drying. This encourages a fuller expression of sweetness, fruit and aroma.

The cherries are then dried using Chevas’ Dark Room Drying approach. Instead of relying entirely on direct sunlight, the coffee completes its drying inside a protected environment, allowing the producer to manage the drying curve more gradually. On other documented Chevas lots, the dark room has been used to preserve floral character, cleanliness and structural balance in the finished cup.

The result is an expressive yet refined Geisha: aromatic and fruit-led, while maintaining the clarity and tea-like finish associated with the variety.

About Yamato Toujiki

Arita, one of the most prestigious pottery producing regions of Japan, has been playing a fundamental role in providing trusty products to support Japanese culinary culture for more than 400 years. Among the manufacturers we met in Arita, Yamato Toujiki is one that was flexible and open to new designs and ideas, while still embracing traditional techniques.

The craftspeople there are truly meticulous in their work, not overlooking even the slightest difference in shape and carefully finishing each piece one by one.

As we went though countless prototypes, their professional inputs such as “this thickness tends to deform after firing” or “the angle of this curve could be adjusted a little more” has given us many new perspectives to give the design we envisioned an actual shape.

The precision in the craftspeople’s work we witnessed on our visit to Arita was truly remarkable. How they used potter’s wheel so naturally like breathing, and how a beautiful shape emerges from it- the moment we saw it, we realized that we are not just making something but also passing on this culture of the art.

Another thing that stuck with us was the atmosphere of the workshop. It was quiet but full of energy at the same time, the air filled with history and a proud craftspersonship.

“You never know until it comes out of the oven” they said- that’s why they treat each and every piece with such attention and precision, making adjustment along the way as needed. In their such work ethics we saw a shared sense of pursuing the ideal with our product designing process.

Kyoto Series is a product born through the hands of such craftspeople- it would be our pleasure if you could feel the warmth of human touch and their stories as you sip.
