A lot of popular US cafes (including Starbucks and Peete's Coffee) sell coffee that comes from right here in the Dota-Tarrazu region of Costa Rica. The majority of people in Santa Maria de Dota have some sort of stake in the coffee business. The Coopedota is a coffee cooperative and the plant where they sort, dry, roast, and ship the beans is right here in town. We took a tour today and learned about the process of making a great high quality coffee. Here it's all done with an eye toward growing organic and recycling as much of the materials and waste as possible. We even got to try our hand at making espressos and capuccinos. Check out this fresh roast:
If you're lucky, we might be bringing you some back! For more information visit www.coopedota.com
