ABU COFFEE was named to honor the memory of José Guillermo Luttrell Tedman, the third generation of coffee producers, and to continue his dream of achieving what he considered the best-balanced coffee cup; a Geisha raised with the highest standards of quality. ​

That is why “ABU” (short for Abuelo, grandfather in Spanish), as his grandchildren used to call him, represents the legacy of this visionary and passionate lover of Boquete and specialty coffee that we want to preserve for the generations to come. ​

We have been talking to the current producer, the younger José Luttrell for quite a while now and have gotten to know each other quite well, and have visit the Luttrell farm and family in Panama. Ply used Abu Gesha in the world brewers cup 2021 in Milan, Italy, and placed 5th in the world.
