5.0 Perfectly balanced morning coffee

by Rick The Coffee Fanatic from Albany, Ny on Nov 12, 2007

During a visit to Costa Rica in 2005 I fell in love with Café Britt and have it shipped to me on a regular basis. The freshness is simply outstanding! While I enjoy all of Café Brit's coffees, my favorite is the Light Roast. It is absolutely perfect for morning and works great throughout the day.

5.0 A pleasure to wake up to

by Margie from Takoma Park, Md on Nov 10, 2007

I searched for a long time for a coffee that was strong but not bitter. This light roast is the best! Dark roasts don't work for me, but most light roasts are weak. This one is wonderful.

4.0 A Very Good Coffee

by Bug Boy from Indiana on Nov 8, 2007

This is a very good coffee. The rating on this coffee was difficult for me because compared to other Cafe Britt coffee's it is very good but not my favorite, hence why I gave it 4 beans, but compared to other coffee's in general it is much better then the norm (probably getting a 5 bean rating vs. coffee's of other brands). This coffee is very smooth and has absolutely no bitter aftertaste but it just lacks some volume to the taste to make it into my 5 bean category.

5.0 "definitely the best coffee ever"

by Vicky from Randleman,nc on Nov 8, 2007

WE USE THIS PRODUCT TO GET US STARTED IN THE MORNINGS.SINCE WE BOTH WORK FOR THE POSTAL SERVICE, WE NEED SOMETHING TO GET US STARTED QUICKLY. THE TASTE IS WONDERFUL AND NEVER BITTER. WE NOW CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CAFE BRITT AND ANOTHER BRAND. WE FIRST DISCOVERED THE PRODUCT WHEN WE VISITED COSTA RICA. I CAME HOME AND STARTED LOOKING FOR THE COFFEE ONLINE AND FOUND YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I BUY THE 20 BAG PACKAGE AND PASS THEM OUT TO OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AS GIFTS.

Coffee Connoisseur

The Costa Rica Light Roast delivers a crisp, consistent flavor that is ideal for your morning cup. Each year, our master cupper canvasses Costa Rica’s Central Valley, selecting the best harvest for our Costa Rica blends. The outcome is a reliable flavor, year round... Our efforts produce a highly aromatic, perfectly balanced blend that holds its qualities year round — a real treat!

To craft our Costa Rica Light Roast, we roast the beans in small batches until they achieve a light, caramel color with just a touch of shine. The resulting mild flavor is well balanced with a full body. Each bright sip delivers a light citrus aroma and subtle flavor of caramel and apricot.  Experienced tasters may even discover a hidden undertone of malt.  

Aside from your morning cup, this blend can also add a depth of flavor as an ingredient in baked goods. Mild enough for novices, yet consistent and flavorful enough for aficionados, the Costa Rica Light Roast is everyone’s friend.
