Weekly Special - Panama
September 16th - September 22nd
From a family-owned business in the Chiriqui province of Panama, this single origin has hints of its neighboring country of Costa Rica in its flavor profile, while still giving it's own sweet, rather than acidic twist on the cup it brews. Cold winds coming off the Atlantic funneled through the Panamanian Mountains create a distinct cup from that of Costa Rica and other countries in the Central American "Bean Belt".
Notes: Cane sugar, molasses, bakers' chocolate
Roast:Â Full city
Roasting small batches
Since 1985!
Old City Coffee was founded by Ruth Isaac in 1985 as a one-person operation. The original location at 221 Church Street in Philadelphia offered freshly-roasted, Arabica beans, brewed coffee, espresso drinks and brewing accessories. Our original mission to supply the public with freshly roasted high-grade coffees, combined with excellent service and competitive pricing, has not changed. This simple but successful formula has been the framework for our continued growth.
Still Roasting Tiny Batches
Our history may be big, but we're still proudly local and roasting tiny batches in the heart of Philadelphia.
