Top 8 Attractions for Coffee Lovers
Coffee production has played a key role in Costa Rica's history and continues to be important to the country's economy. The volcanic soil, high altitudes, and good climate come together to create some of the best coffee crops in the world with its lively acidity, lighter body, and smooth, sweet, floral flavours.
As a small country, Costa Rica now provides under 1% of the world's coffee production, so don't expect to find their coffee beans on just any supermarket shelf back home. All the more reason to explore the hyperlocal coffee culture, from farm to cup.
Don't miss the chance to visit local hipster joints for your third-wave coffee experience while in San José. You can even take cupping classes to develop your palate! A farm visit is an absolute must when you are ready to leave the city and explore the countryside.
