Queen of the Cup – Best of Panama” 🎶 (Salsa-style rhythm, driving percussion, trumpets, clave b**t, congas, and a touch of accordion or flauta panameña for local flair) [Verse 1] From the highlands where the clouds kiss the trees, Panama’s heart beats on every breeze. Geisha blossoms like a song in bloom, With every sip, the soul finds room. [Pre-Chorus] Natural, washed — they tell their tale, Of hands that picked and winds that sail. From Boquete’s light to Volcán’s fire, We roast, we cup, we never tire! [Chorus] 🎺 She’s the queen of the cup, Geisha rising up — feel the heat in your b***d! From Japan to Sydney, Taipei to Peru, We gather as one, for a taste so true. Panama, oh Panama, your beans never lie — Let the rhythm of coffee lift us high! [Verse 2] Caturra, Pacamara, in the dance they join, Every lot, a story, every bean, a coin. The farmers, the families, generations deep, Planting hope in soil, in dreams they keep. [Pre-Chorus] Judges swirl, breathe, and feel the flame, Aromas rise — never the same. With every cupping, the passion grows, In every note, the terroir shows! [Chorus – with call & response] 🎺 She’s the queen of the cup — (¡Geisha, Geisha!) Let your spirit erupt — (¡Panamá, arriba!) From Seoul to Berlin, Beijing to LA, We honour the farms, the café ballet. Panama, oh Panama, you make the world sing — Your coffee, your soul, your offering! [Bridge – percussion breakdown, spoken] This is for the pickers, the dryers, the roasters, The storytellers in every cup. For every varietal that dares to shine — Geisha may lead, but all rise in time. [Final Chorus – key change for lift] 🎺 She’s the queen of the cup, Raise your glass, fill it up! Panama’s rhythm in every pour, We’re dancing now — that’s what we came for! Panama, oh Panama, you’ve won our hearts, A fiesta of flavor where greatness starts! [Outro – fading chant over percussion] (¡Geisha! ¡Café! ¡Panamá por siempre!) (¡We cup, we dance, we love, we say — gracias!)
