Distinctive Hotels meet Gourmet Coffee...

This morning the Small Distinctive Hotels Team and its members met at the Café Britt headquarters in Heredia.The special location of this meeting is due to a special anouncement we would like to communicate:

As of today, the Small Distinctive Hotels Group will be collaborating with the renowned Costa Rican  gourmet coffee brand Café Britt in order to provide unique offers for the market of locals and residents!

During the "green season" which approximately lasts from May to December, our hotel members provide special offers for locals and residents of Costa Rica. A special website has been established to communicate these promotions. Moreover the distinctive Fresh Market chain will be featuring our member hotels as well as Café Britt with this campaign, offering an interesting variety of prizes provided by our member hotels.

In this context, this morning the entire Small Distinctive Hotels Group had the opportunity to taste the high-quality coffee provided by Café Britt this morning...

With 6 empty cups before us, we little by little became more acquainted with the diverse tastes of this Costa Rica gourmet coffee. The grind, fresh beans were first pressed in a French Coffee Press for best taste as we learned. We learned about the process of growing excellent coffee beans, for instance how altitude affects the quality of the beans, as well as about the roasting process, followed by a tasting of the various roasts from the characteristic and mild light-roasted to the more sweet and chocolaty dark-roasted beans, as well as decafeinated coffee and finishing with a gourmet espresso.

The beautiful coffee farm, interesting and entertaining coffee tour as well as of course the delicious coffee, make Café Britt not only an excellent partner for Small Distinctive Hotels, but especially a great place to visit on your next vacation to Costa Rica!
