Known as Costa Rica’s “Grano de Oro†(Grain of Gold), coffee has supported the local economy since the 1850’s. The coffee been is so cherished by the national government that Costa Rica is the only country to issue a ban on the production of any coffee other than Arabica. The Arabica coffee plant was first grown in Costa Rica’s Central Valley, where ideal growing conditions – including fertile soil, high altitude, and a cool climate – contributed to its success. Arabica bean coffee is celebrated for its high level of antioxidants as well as other noted health benefits.
