United StatesWe like slightly acidic taste in coffee. This one does not have pronounced acidic taste, but is very complex and intriguing. It makes a beautiful cup and we will be ordering it again.
United StatesI have purchased several of Tico Coffee Roasters many products. They all have distinct flavors. What they all have in common is they are all delicious and from the very first sip, you know you are drinking gourmet coffee. To quote from the 1995 movie "Pulp Fiction", this is not "some freeze-dried Taster's Choice." Tico Roasters always "springs this serious gourmet **** on us." I recently received an email (I am SOooo happy to have signed up on their email list) suggesting their new Costa Rican coffee, Santa Maria de Dota. It is described as having a taste of sugar cane, chocolate, hazelnuts and vanilla. To me, that was an intriguing combination I was anxious to try. This coffee is so smooth, it feels like the first sip is kissing the inside of your mouth. Santa Maria de Dota is the perfect first cup of the day and the perfect cup to enjoy with after dinner desserts.
United StatesI purchased Costa Rica Santa Maria de Dota and another Costa Rica bag and it has been some of the best coffee I have had in a long time. Highly recommend and intend on coming back to try the many other options.
