5.0 Earthly Sexy

by The Canuck from Vancouver, B.c. Canada on Jun 5, 2009

This is the coffee that made us leave our hearts in Costa Rica, when we first visited there a couple of years ago. We've been ordering it since. We drink it almost daily, allowing it to reconnect us back to the wonderful land and people where it was grown. It appeals to our senses with its personality taken from the soil, its sexily earthy. An experience to enjoy!

5.0 You can drink this coffee without cream!

by Ddepke1 from Lexington on May 10, 2009

I have to have 1/2 and 1/2 in most coffees but I can drink Poas just fine without it. I am watching my calories closely and this is the perfect coffee for me! Thanks again Cafe Britt.

5.0 One taste and we were hooked

by Fickle Coffee Drinker from Mill Spring, Nc on May 7, 2009

We were first introduced to Cafe Britt Coffee when our daughter returned home from from a semester abroad in Costa Rica raving about the great coffe she had there. She brought several bags of Cafe Britt Coffee. We were hooked with the first cup. While we enjoy all of the different Cafe Britt Coffees our favorite is Poas. We have been drinking Cafe Britt coffee exclusively for the past three years.

5.0 Best coffee!

by Joey from Chicago, Il on May 7, 2009

Poas is by far my favorite of the Cafe Britt coffees. Although I truly love them all, this one has been my coffee staple for over a year. There is no comparison! I love Cafe Britt!

Product Detail

Misty ecosystems and fertile soil. Altitude and legend. The conditions that produce our Poas Volcanic Earth coffee have been nurtured over the millennia on the slopes of Costa Rica’s most-visited active volcano. This is the choice of connoisseurs. The changeable, volcanic climate produces a complex coffee with surprising taste subtleties.

Roasted dark, our Poas has an enticing aroma and sweetness when hot. As it cools, hints of earth and lemon emerge. Each sip produces the same exhilaration as a lucky glimpse of the volcano’s deep-blue crater lake.

 

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

Coffee Connoisseur

The aroma arouses your senses even before the cup touches your lips. Your journey has begun to the edge of Costa Rica’s active Poas Volcano. Nature’s volatility — which played a key role in creating this lushly fertile landscape —­ also helped give birth to the exceptional coffee of this Central Highlands region. 

While steam rises from your cup, reminiscent of the active crater, pay homage to the smoking mountain that for millennia has spilled precious minerals into the surrounding land creating extraordinarily fruitful soil. Your palate is not dreaming. A touch of the smoky, volcanic soil has imparted its flavor into the coffee beans and is deliciously juxtaposed alongside fruity flavors and a bit of bright lime. 

Unlike the unpredictable mountain climate that produces these select beans, the Café Britt Poas Volcanic Earth will consistently provide a complex, aromatic cup.
