  • Weather in Boquete, Panama
    Since 2002, the world's retirement population has been discovering Boquete as a retirement haven with low cost of living, perfect weather and beautiful people. As a result, unemployment here is low and quality of life is high. Boquete weather is characterized by a warmer Dry Season (December through March) known as Summer, and a cooler Wet Season (April through November) known as Winter. Temperatures are highly dependent on elevation, cloud cover and rainfall, with variances of up to 20 degrees Farenheit between the sea level cities of Panama City and David, to the 1,200 meters (4,000 feet) above sea level elevation of Boquete. Nights and sometimes even days, on the summit of Volcan Baru at 4,000 meters (13,000 feet), can get VERY cold so be sure to prepare for this if you intend to scale the summit. The climatic conditions and sharp incline in topography make for breathtaking beauty, as well as several micro-climates within the valley itself.

Television Crew Searches Panama For Perfect Cup of Coffee

Boquete Mountain Panama - Paradise On Earth

Myste and her crew traveled the width and breath of Panama on a scouting trip in search of adventure and the perfect cup of coffee, and she found it all in the Boquete Mountain region of Panama.

Region Touts the Best & Most Expensive Coffee

Our travels took us to "heaven on earth" located in the Boquete Mountain region of Panama.  We stayed at the best kept secret in all of Central America, Valle Escondido Resort, a hide away cut out of the jungle that offered all the comforts of a first class golf and spa resort.  Our gracious hosts Sam and Thalia Taliaferro took us under their wings and gave us advice on everything ranging from where to find the best coffee in the world to investment opportunities in the paradisaical retreat.

One referral was Ricardo Koyner, President of Kotowa Coffee.  Ricardo is a third generation coffee grower in Boquete, and his plantations win awards year after year.  His plantation grows the rare Geisha coffee, and arguably markets the most expensive cup of coffee in the world; "VOGO" $500 per champagne sized bottle sold only in Japan.

Our guide for adventure was Boquete Mountain Safari Tours, who took us four wheeling all over the mountain.  Owner Bradd Ferrias is the perfect guide for exciting fun and serene beauty.

We could have listened for days to Sam, Thalia, Ricardo and Brad tout the amazing history of Panama, the wonders of the Boquete area, and its fine coffee.  And, we will when we return the end of April to shoot the Panama episode of Myste Buzzed on Paradise.
