5.0 Paos Volcanic

by Stephen Halstead from St. Petersburg, Florida on Oct 14, 2011

Just came back from 8 days in Costa Rica. I tried 3 of Britt's blends from the hotel in-room coffee service, and bought a bag of all 3 to return home. I love great coffee, and this is some of the finest. I drove the entire country's growing regions by car. Trust me, it's grown high in the mountain's on sunny hillsides, near small farm towns. I drove the narrow winding roads through the countryside. Wonderful gifts for a coffee lover.

5.0 I love Britt POAS volcanic soil coffee.

by Charles Barth from Snowmass Village on Sep 12, 2011

I love Britt POAS volcanic soil coffee. To me it is like a fine cigar or cognac. I can enjoy it even before bedtime and always sleep well. It relaxes me. I grind the whole bean to fine and brew it by the cup with boiling water through my Melitta filter. It has become a ritual. Thank you Britt!

5.0 Viva Poas!

by Rosalind Raia from Houston, Texas Usa on Jul 6, 2011

After being so enthralled with the Tres Rios Valdivia I placed an online order for the Poas Volcanic Earth (beans) though I was hard pressed to believe anything could stand with the Valdivia. The Poas certainly holds it own! A marvelous coffee, very aromatic (and I do love the smell of freshly ground coffee), the Poas is heavenly. I have one more coffee to try in the next few weeks, a bag of the Tarrazu Montecielo and if there is any indication fromt the scent of the bag, I think I am going to be very happy!

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.
