5.0 DARK AND RICH

by Karen from Houston, Texas on Jan 4, 2008

This is a dark roast bean, that can be made strong or weak and still be able to enjoy the robust flavor and aroma. It has a strong character, that does not get lost when used with the new flavored creamers. You can get an "almost" expresso quality by using extra beans. I like it in the morning to get me up and going, and in the afternoon, "with flavored creamer" for a relaxing treat. The only thing wrong is that a bag doesn't last long enough.

5.0 Adoras the Poas

by Hodgey from Sudbury, Ontario on Jan 4, 2008

Our love affair with Costa Rican coffeee began last year with a three week excursion through the country....the visit proved to be an epiphany for my wife who up until then was NOT a coffee lover, always defaulting to the bland world of tea..Britt has changed all that and having loaded up with as much as we could carry back we have also since ordered...Poas remains our favourite but we haven't met a bad Costa Rican coffe yet....AMBOSIA !!!!..Pura Vida..from your friends in Canada

5.0 Perfect for first-time coffee drinkers!

by Kat00731 from Minneapolis, Mn on Jan 4, 2008

I have never been a big coffee drinker--but I love Poas. It tastes sweet enough for me, especially with a little sugar in it. I am not into dark roasts, so this is perfect for me.

5.0 Poas Volcanic Earth takes America

by Joey from Waycross, Ga on Jan 4, 2008

We use the Poas Volcanic Earth Coffee whenever making coffee. I have given some to a friend and they absolutely love it. They in fact ordered some from Cafe Britt and then I placed an order for 15 bags and they got some of it. I have given some to my uncles and cousins and they absolutely think it's the greatest coffee. It is refreshing and just absolutely has a taste that brings a smile to my face. My fiance lives in Costa Rica and I have enjoyed it fresh while over there and it was wonderful. It has a unique blend of coffee beans that give it an original taste that compares to no other. The only not so great thing is that it's getting expensive to use all the time. [...]

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.
