Hacienda La Minita is located in the steep terrain of the Tarrazú Valley in Costa Rica and is a symbol of quality and commitment with rigorous coffee consumers around the world. And beyond that (and the reasons why we purchase this coffee), they have a commitment to the community and the environment.

Our direct relationship with La Minita started 10 years ago when we started Tico Coffee Roasters. Our desire was to provide a truly unique experience. Since then, this coffee has become a favorite for many.

You can feel confident that your purchase supports worthy causes like environment preservation at the farm, no use of pesticides, housing for workers, financial support to buy school uniforms and supplies every year for the children of La Minita's employees, as well as supporting schools in the community where Hacienda La Minita is located.

Not better than I expected

I've been long buying this coffee time to time, but I've never had the La Minita as what I first tasted about 20 more years ago. It may be an environmental change? Or mass production?

this tastes nothing like the La Minita from Coffe Bean. I was surprised there a citrus aftertaste...

The shipping service and packaging are well executed. Too bad the coffee did not meet my expectations.

Hi Thomas,
We're sorry to hear our Costa Rica La Minita didn't hit the spot for you. At Tico, the satisfaction of our coffee lovers is what we strive for.
Every coffee roaster will roast the coffee beans differently and so the results you will find even with similar coffees will vary. In our roasts, we are highlighting some very specific flavors the coffees offer and the La Minita has some very unique chocolate flavors with a hint of orange and citrus acidity. Our roast is likely lighter than what you are used to and as such these citrus flavors will shine through, while in a darker roast, they will disappear.
Thanks for your feedback!
Best, Tico Coffee Roasters.
