“Nature, Peace and Pura Vida”
Like the tiniest gift box with the biggest surprise inside – that’s our Costa Rica. Café Britt’s 18 stores here reflect every facet of this surprising country, one of the most biodiverse on earth.
Costa Rica covers barely three-hundredths percent of the earth’s surface, yet it contains an amazing 6 percent of the world’s plant and animal species. Costa Rica’s volcanic soils and perfect climate produce one of the world’s finest coffees. Café Britt comes from the country’s premier growing regions. Shoppers can sample all our roasts, together with Café Britt gourmet dark chocolates, sweets, nuts and Jambo grilling sauces.
From the shimmering blue wingbeats of the giant Morpho butterfly to the shy exuberance of a rainforest orchid, our stores capture this colorful journey into Costa Rica’s diverse natural beauty. |
Tropical woods: Hewn from plantation-grown and naturally fallen rainforest trees, our wood crafts showcase the talents of local artisans. |
Jewelry: Nature-inspired jewelry transforms natural objects into wearable art |
Pre-Columbian reproductions: Pottery, stoneware and metalwork made by the modern descendents of Costa Rica’s earliest peoples.
|
Artful crafts: Textiles, baskets, drums, sculpture, paintings – we travel the country to find artisan/suppliers whose crafts tell the country’s story with creativity and imagination.. |
Colorfully painted oxcarts: Costa Rica’s national symbol is today as much a part of the national identity as the coffee they once hauled to market along narrow, mountainous roads. Declared a UNESCO symbol of national patrimony, colorful reproduction oxcarts come in a variety of sizes, created by master craftsmen and painters. |
Coffees: Our signature product is at the heart of all our stores. Café Britt coffees come from all the country’s premier growing regions. Shoppers sample why Costa Rican coffee is world famous. |
Chocolates & More: Fruity and nutty dark chocolates, brittle, gourmet hot cocoa and fruity grilling sauces… more great taste that builds on our coffee traditions. |
Souvenir items: T-shirts and caps are designed by our own in-house designers under our own Morpho brand. Stores have a huge variety of Costa Rica-themed key chains and fobs, pens and novelty items – fun stuff for last-minute gifts. |
Costa Rica is different. It’s home to Latin America’s most enduring democracy. We’ve had no army since 1948. Our country is beautiful, diverse, welcoming and peaceful. Our stores here combine it all in the Costa Rican tradition of pura vida – pure life! |
