Hacienda Alsacia Starbucks Coffee Farm

About

Less than an hour outside of the Costa Rican capital, San Jose, lies a fascinating place where sustainable farming practices meet the needs of global artisanal coffee roasters. Here, under the shadow of the magnificent Poás Volcano, Hacienda Alsacia was created as Starbucks’ first and only coffee farm. The operation prioritizes best practices that ensure the success of small-scale local farmers, preserve the quality of each new generation of coffee, and keep information accessible to coffee growers around the world. Visitors can participate in a tour of the coffee farm to learn more about the process of crafting great coffee, from bean to brew. The farm also allows visitors to indulge in samples of the rich roasted coffee and to purchase beans right at the source.
