Eugene Altieri
Eugene Altieri is the founder of Altieri Specialty Coffee, a family-owned Boquete producer operating Mima Estate and Pipim Estate. The properties grow Geisha, Typica, Catuai and Caturra on the eastern slope of Volcán Barú; Eugene's children now help lead the business.
Farm: Finca Alto Quiel / Mima Estates →History
Eugene Altieri entered the coffee industry in 2005 after acquiring two farms in Boquete without prior experience in coffee cultivation. He replanted the land with high-quality varieties and converted an existing ice plant into a coffee mill. Within a decade of operation, the estate began achieving significant recognition at the Best of Panama competition.
