Описание: #CostaRicacoffee #livingincostarica #Tarrazucoffee 'Why I Stopped Drinking Coffee - Living in Costa Rica' I, michael alan of Travel Costa Rica NOW have been an avid fan of coffee almost my entire life. And particularly, Costa Rica, coffee. So then, if I love coffee so much, why did I stop drinking it? I will give you the first reason. I don't like things controlling me. It's that simple. The same reason I stopped drinking alcohol 6 months or so ago. Was I drinking too much caffeine? Before, I was drinking 2 cups of coffee in the morning and 2 in the afternoon. Not too bad. But after I stopped drinking alcohol, I started drinking more which was worrisome. I contacted the internet for guidance. The internet did let me know I was drinking too much caffeine. Not good. I had to do something. You will have to check out this video, 'Why I Stopped Drinking Coffee - Living in Costa Rica' to find out the major reason I decided to stop coffee.

Does climate and whether play a role in what separates good coffee from great coffee? How does Starbucks coffee measure up? Does the size of the bean make a difference in a good cup of coffee? What is an Arabica bean? Why is the Arabica bean so hard and how does it effect the flavor of the coffee? What's the difference between a light roast, medium roast and dark roasts? Are the darkest, shiniest coffee beans the BEST coffee beans? What's a 'blend' and why is everything a 'blend' these days? Is it possible to get 100% pure coffee anymore. I am talking to Matias, known as the 'Coffee Guy' in these parts. His coffee farm is located in the Tarrazu region of Costa Rica, so that's where the magic happens. Matias is owner, operator, farmer of, 'Down to Earth' coffee.. and in my opinion some of the BEST coffee found anywhere. He answers these questions and more.
