History of Costa Rican Coffee
Coffee came to Costa Rica as early as 1779 and within 50 years was generating more revenue than any other crop, but by the 1830’s they were growing more coffee than the ships heading south could take.
And virtually no infrastructure existed for transporting even a small amount of green coffee to the east coast of Costa Rica (where London was a mere 5,000 miles away). The distribution woes of Costa Rican

coffee producers reached the ears of an up-and-coming shipping magnate named William Le Lacheur in 1841 and on Christmas day, 1841 he sailed The Monarch into port at Puntarenas, Costa Rica, and thus began a long and mutually beneficial relationship.
On one voyage to London in late in 1843, the Monarch carried more than half a million pounds of Costa Rican coffee.

Opmerkingen van koffiebranders

There is so much to say about this coffee. It is rich and complex and keeping the tradition of exceptional quality coffee that we have come to expect from Costa Rica. It has easily become one of our favourite.
