\"CoffeeDrinking coffee is a way of life and even a means for survival for Costa Ricans. Coffee beans have been used in the various industries since the 19th<\/sup> century. Recognized as one of the finest importers of coffee for over 150 years, Costa Rica is one place that should not be dismissed when looking for what might be the best cup of coffee.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Bean of History<\/strong><\/p>\n

Coffee is not native to Costa Ricans. Arabic coffee beans were brought to the coastal country by the Spanish and quickly became a household name in the trade industry. The temperate climate and the fertile soil permitted these seeds to become abundant among the areas of Costa Rica. It\u2019s no wonder why that until now, this Latin American country is known for its coffee beans.<\/p>\n

It is said that the best coffee can be found in the Central Valley<\/a> but there are other coffee tours around different plantations that beg to say otherwise. Various tours last for up to four hours because in this Central American country, they take coffee very seriously.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Espiritu Santo\u2019s Coffee Tour<\/strong><\/p>\n

Surrounded by 640 acres of Arabic coffee plantation, no trip is complete for any tourists without visiting Espiritu Santo. It is located in the mountains of Naranjo and is a take-off point other must-see destinations of Costa Rica including Monteverde, Guanacaste<\/a> and the Arenal<\/a> areas. An estimated tour rate of $22entiteles you to a compete tour of the Espiritu Santo coffee plantation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Caf\u00e9 Britt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Known to be the largest exporter of coffee in the country, Caf\u00e9 Britt holds the most popular coffee plantation tour. Nestled in the Central Valley of Costa Rica, this coffee plantation has been running since 1991 and has housed visitors who are interested in the art of making coffee. It takes you only $20 to get around this plantation as well as getting to taste one of the best coffees Costa Rica has to offer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Doka Estate <\/strong><\/p>\n

Just off the slopes of the Poas Volcano, the Doka Estate boasts of growing award-winning coffee beans and roasting it close to perfection. The tour which will only cost you around $20 allows you to learn more about processing these little beans and making it as aromatic and tasty as possible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Caf\u00e9 Monteverde Tour<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among all the other coffee tours Costa Rica, Caf\u00e9 Monteverde prices its own plantation journey for about $30 because it is believed to be one of the best places to witness the process of having a coffee bean turn into a cup of coffee. Apart from that, the Caf\u00e9 Monteverde is the representation of Costa Rica\u2019s environmental sustainability thus giving it greater credibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apart from Coffee..<\/strong><\/p>\n

Other than enjoying and learning all about the things there is to know about coffee, tourists get to see one of the largest volcanic craters in the area. Poas Volcano guarantees another sight to see for about $69 entrance fee\u2013a different flavor, apart from the Arabic taste of Costa Rica\u2019s coffee.<\/p>\n
