5.0 You'll Adore This Coffee!!!

by Marcia Marcia Marcia from Titusville Fl on May 6, 2009

Having had the opportunity to "be a taster" at the Britt Coffee Plantation,I fell in love with their coffees immediately! The name comes from a word which references "rocky ground", but this coffee is smooth as any I've ever had! Took some home to share with friends and now find myself placing an order every few months. I "count my pennies" but when it comes to my Britt's Terrazu Montecielo, it's worth every one! I am now officially a "coffee snob"...I MUST have my Britt's every morning. (I love their decaf for the evenings!)PS Never a problem with their shipping. [...]

5.0 "THE" best coffee ever!

by Pj from Ann Arbor, Michigan on May 6, 2009

I have been buying Cafe Britt coffee since visiting Costa Rica and Cafe Britt 6 years ago. We've tried all the Cafe Britt blends. They are all fabulous and full flavored, but Tarrazu Montecielo is my favorite. I love to sit on my deck in the morning with a cup of freshly brewed Cafe Britt.

Product Detail

From rocky ground

Experience Tarrazu Montecielo, a blend for the coffee connoisseurs with a penchant for perfection. Grown in the rich volcanic soils of Costa Rica’s famed Tarrazu region, these choice Arabica coffee cherries are ripened evenly at 1,400 to 1,600 meters, hand-picked, sun dried and dark roasted for a unique taste. Café Britt Tarrazu will surprise you with a flavor that hints of cacao and grapefruit and an aroma of aged wood and dark chocolate. Its intensity fills the palate, then fades cheerfully.

  • 100% Arabica SHB (Strictly Hard Bean).
  • Kosher certified.

Coffee Connoisseur

The beans from Tarrazu mature slowly, learning patience from their infancy. Sheltered by the Pacific mountain range, these sought-after beans share their sanctuary with colorful birds and enchanted forests.

Small towns and villages, each named for a patron saint, speckle this high-mountain region. Generations of farmers known for intense dedication to their craft have grown these particularly hard beans on small plantations nestled in valleys and perched on mountain slopes. The beans ripen slowly; requiring coffee pickers to visit each tree three to four times, plucking only the ripest beans, which are then dried under the Costa Rican sun. Café Britt works directly with family farmers to continue the nurturing process of these special beans. From the plantation to your cup, this coffee is patiently cared for with integrity each step of the way. The result is a strong coffee that fills your palate with unparalleled aroma, excellent body, and acidity reminiscent of sweet grapefruit.  

 Take your time... enjoy every sip.
