A Story Rooted in Panama

Red Field Coffee was born from a deep passion for specialty coffee and a heartfelt connection to the highlands of Panama, a land renowned for producing some of the most exceptional coffees in the world. Nestled between two oceans and enriched by volcanic soil, lush forests, and a unique microclimate, Panama offers ideal growing conditions that elevate every coffee cherry to its fullest expression.

As a chef, I’ve always been passionate about flavors and traditions. In Panama, coffee became my bridge to culture and community, and now through Red Field Coffee Roaster I share that passion in every cup.

I enjoy brewing with Chemex, Origami, or Aeropress, drawn to chocolatey, nutty notes that bring comfort and balance. For me, coffee is more than taste, it’s about creating lasting moments.

The heart of Red Field Coffee is Jose Barreto and Kristal Berttiz. In 2014, they moved to Panama, where they built a lasting bond with the people, the land, and its traditions. Coffee became more than a daily ritual—it was their connection to the community and culture that welcomed them. That bond is the foundation of Red Field Coffee, and today, from Florida, they share Panama’s excellence with the U.S. market.

We partner with small, family-owned farms committed to sustainable and ethical practices. These dedicated producers cultivate high-altitude varietals like Geisha, Catuai, and Typica, carefully hand-picking each cherry at peak ripeness. Their craft, care, and generations of knowledge are the foundation of the coffees we roast.

Every batch is artisanally roasted with precision and respect for origin. The roasting process is designed to highlight the vibrant acidity, complex aromas, and natural sweetness that define Panamanian coffees.

From Florida, I share Panama’s finest coffees through Red Field Coffee Roaster. I enjoy Typica and Catuai, brewed as espresso, Origami, or French Press, always starting my day with coffee at sunrise.

For my wife and me, it’s our daily ritual and bond. What excites me most is bringing Panamanian quality to others and celebrating the beauty of simplicity
