We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Costa Rica Indios - this is a light bodied, flavorful breakfast cup brought to us by the folks at La Minita. Because these beans do not go through a final hand sorting, they do not fall under the La Minita trademark and thus, their price is a bit less. This coffee is also from the folks at La Minita and is lighter bodied and brighter than the Indios or La Minita. We encourage you to explore the world through our exceptional selection of coffees from 25 countries.
Coffee is more than a beverage.
We are closed all holiday weekends. At an altitude of 3,000 feet, the coffee bushes thrive on small holdings where the rain, sun and soil nurture the berries to fruition in June and July each year. The cherry skin is then removed by a hand operated disc pulper and the mucous-covered beans are spread out on reed mats, turned constantly in the sun to dry for two days. The parchment is milled and the clean green beans are again carefully sun-dried for a further two days, after which they are bagged and trucked to the exporter's facility in Medan. Grading, sorting and hand-picking follows to remove any offending impurities.
