Discovering the World’s Most Exquisite Coffee: Best of Panama and Finca Sophia

For most coffee lovers, it’s easy to imagine a “good cup” — but in the world of specialty coffee, there exists a realm where beans are treated like fine wine.  The Best of Panama (BoP) competition is one of the most prestigious coffee events in the world.

Only the finest lots earn the BoP title and are later sold through a private global auction.  In 2025, a winning coffee fetched over fetched a record-breaking US$30,204/kg (≈HK$234,924), setting a new world record.

In 2025, Stone Coffee proudly secured BoP Lot GN-03 Finca Sophia La Roca Geisha Natural, a coffee that achieved an extraordinary score of 94.88 points out of 100 points.

Perched at around 2,130 meters above sea level in Panama’s misty highlands, Finca Sophia ranks among the highest coffee farms in Central America.  Founded in 2008 by a team of coffee professionals including Willem Boot, Helen Russell, and David Pohl, the farm is built on a vision of sustainability and precision.  Its high altitude slows cherry maturation, allowing sugars and flavor compounds to develop gradually — a key factor behind the exceptional sweetness, clarity, and complexity in its Geisha coffees.

The awarded La Roca Geisha Natural is a masterpiece — bursting with notes of Peach, Valencia Orange, Nectarine, Floral Honey, Red Tea, finishing silky and elegant.  Every sip reflects the rare beauty of high-mountain Panama terroir and the artistry behind the Best of Panama legacy.

A cup not just to drink, but to remember.
