Coffee, long before it reaches the supermarket

What I found very surprising in Orosí was that I couldn't find a single store there where you could actually buy some of the locally produced coffee. You would expect some nice coffee houses here with the "real black gold" to drink and for sale, but nothing of that.

In fact I ended up buying a bag of coffeebeans in the local supermarket. Purely coincidently there also was some of the local coffee, but even foreign coffee is being sold here. The coffee is not cheap by the way: for a small bag of 500 grams I paid something like 4 dollars.

 Orosí is a laid-back, not super-touristy town to use as a home base during a trip to CR. We stayed for 4 days during the high season and seemed to be the only gringos in town for a while :) Very...
