5.0 Poas Volcanic Earth

by Glyn Nelson from Irvine California on Oct 12, 2012

I first experienced Costa Rican Poas on a vacation in Costa Rica. I visited the Factory and tasted all the varieties available but settled on the Poas Volcaninc. Such flavorful coffee, no bitterness. I bought several bags with me when I came back to California and I have been buying and drinking it on a daily basis. I had the opportunity to be in Panama where I tasted their prize coffee and I prefer CR Poas Volcanic over the Panamanian coffee every time.

5.0 Great with chocolate

by Jen H from Aurora, Co on May 21, 2012

I usually make my coffee a little stronger for more flavor, but his coffee is just right. It has a bold flavor that requires no extra help. With chocolate anything, it is perfect. Not for after dinner if you like to sleep at night.

5.0 Flavor that explodes like a volcano

by Janis Holden from Fayetteville on May 15, 2012

This has to be my absolute favorite of all the Britt coffees--and Britt is my favorite! It's a strong coffee with no bitter taste. I'm a college professor and I brought some in to share with my class. They all loved it. In fact, the aroma of the grounds had everyone anticipating their cup of coffee well before we actually brewed it during the last 20 minutes of class. I can't say enough positive things about this coffee. The biggest con? I think I've become addicted to Poas coffee.

5.0 My Absolute Favorite

by David Thomason from San Antonio, Tx on Mar 2, 2012

I've traveled all over South and Central America. Everywhere I go I always try to find the coffee/espresso with a reputation or awards that would make it best of the best. I discovered Cafe Britt when a friend served it. I checkout the website, decided to try this Poas Volcanic Soil Coffee. It surpassed all my expectations. The espresso shots are excellent. No acidic taste, beautiful flavor and wonderfully bold but not too bold! Who would have thought I found my all-time favorite sitting in front of my computer.

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.
