Don Evilio coffee from the Tarrazu region of Costa Rica


I sent an email to Jorge, the manager of the Don Evilio plantation in the Tarrazu region of Costa Rica, and I heard back from him already that he can help us facilitate our Costa Rican Coffee Tour. This is so exciting! So I have begun researching the San Marcos Valley. It's only an hour from San Jose. Here is a picture from the Don Evilio website that I particularly liked. Furthermore, Sue Strauss (bean counter extraordinaire) had a great idea about how baristas can raise money for the trip... we can sell coffee at the farmers markets and festivals this summer and fall, and baristas get to put the profits towards their trip, in proportion to the number of hours that everyone contributes. Costa Rica here we come. January/February of 2007, most likely.
