Cost Rica - leader of the pack

Costa Rica's coffee farmers have earned a reputation for being some of the best coffee farmers in the world.

Costa Rica farmers are certainly on another level.

Our Costa Rica Jaguar micro lot produces beautiful sweetness.

With unique flavors of caramel, toffee, and praline with refined acidity, you will love the gorgeously long finish that lingers forever.

Besides the medal-winning performances in previous years, this coffee continues to improve every season. 

An extraordinary Grand-Cru selection exhibits a superb stone fruit finish with a candy-like sweetness.

This beautiful coffee is from the San Diego mill, rated as the most sustainable in Central America.

With abundant stone fruits, red apples, caramel, toffee, and rich milk chocolate, we love the incredible sweetness of any brew application.

Why Costa Rican coffees are so good

Costa Rica's volcanic soils, mountainous terrain, and plentiful rainfall provide ideal conditions for cultivating high-quality coffee beans.

Costa Rica's coffee farmers are well-respected leaders in coffee processing techniques.

They invented and perfected the "honey" style of processing raw coffee, which adds incredible sweetness.

It's an essential method of processing coffee; many other coffee-growing countries have copied the honey style.

But the critical reason Costa Rica leads the rest of Central and South America is a stable and vibrant economy.

Unlike El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and, to some extent, Honduras, countries that lack capital, labor, and critical infrastructure, Costa Rica is instead a modern, well-resourced, and capable region.

The biggest challenge now for Costa Rica is preserving lands traditionally used for coffee farming from real estate developers.

Developers are hungry to convert farming areas into expensive Condominiums, catering to a growing US retiree market.

As recent as 25 years ago, Costa Rica relied heavily upon the coffee industry to keep the economy running.

However, Costa Rica's economy is far more diverse, with extensive manufacturing and real estate tourism as the key drivers of growth and affluence.

Subsequently, there has been a reduced reliance on agricultural products such as coffee. 

Costa Rican coffee farmers are the most professional in the world, and the coffees command high premiums in the global market.

Our lovely Jaguar

The Costa Rica Jaguar coffee is prepared by a hulling of the parchment using coffee sundried in a greenhouse.

A method designed to cater to wet conditions, further ensuring better coffee quality.

Jaguar is an innovative brand designed by Jürgen Plate - a great coffee specialist and one of the most respected coffee pioneers in the country.

His fluency in coffee blending and design led to the creation of 'Jaguar.' It's a name that commemorates Volcafe as a leading sponsor for the Jaguar Conservation Program in Costa Rica.

It was not that long ago when coffee roasters around the world would use a portion of Costa Rican coffee to enhance and super-charge their blends.

The fine acidity, sweetness and perfectly prepared coffees from Costa Rica stood head and shoulders above all other origins.

But over time the price of Costa Rican coffees has reached expensive levels so coffee roasters stopped using Costa Rican coffees in blends.

Today, there is no such thing as a "cheap" Costa Rica coffee. All that disappeared more than 10 years ago.

Our Jaguar is such a lovely coffee with refined acidity, intense sweetness and balance that few other coffee origins can match.

Yep, we love our Costa Rica Jaguar .........a stunning, classy coffee with richness and sweetness you won't find in anything else.
