Land Rovers have touched the lives of many people in many different ways around the world. In Costa Rica, Land Rovers have become a vital part of the coffee industry and, today this partnership can be sampled through a unique coffee blend.
Growing coffee has been a vital source of income for hundreds of small communities around the world. Costa Rica is known for producing some of the world’s best coffee beans. The rich volcanic soil, constant rainfall and consistent temperatures in the mountain highlands are the perfect conditions for coffee to grow and thrive.
Land Rover has a long history in the coffee trade in Costa Rica. In 1949, Costa Rican farmers used Land Rovers to gather their crops from the high-altitude plantations where their traditional oxen were unable to. The Land Rover was hardy enough to be burdened with heavy loads and handle the constant humidity, powerful enough to climb the treacherous mountains and, narrow enough to move between countless rows o coffee plants. The Land Rover thus helped in shaping the economy of this entire country.
The brand Land Rover Coffee, today based in Staffordshire, England, was built on this genuine heritage. In operation since 2005, as a fully operational coffee company it offers uniquely branded coffee, coffee machinery, service and associated products both to the beverage industry and retail customers.
Internationally recognized, Land Rover Coffee is made from the finest, handpicked coffee beans and is a successful and desirable brand that is renowned for its quality. Not the strongest coffee blend but with its own distinctive aroma and flavour. Available in a choice, from single origin estate coffees, to pleasant and slightly nutty tasting blends. Land Rover Coffee is sold as whole beans or ground to suit a range of equipment.
They also provide a range of coffee making equipment for homes and businesses which are workshop prepared and then adjusted to suit customers. This equipment is maintained by fully qualified engineers from the Land Rover Coffee national (UK) team.
Land Rover Coffee supports and sustains communities and assists in conserving the environment too. This philosophy stems from the Land Rover/ Oxen Exchange, back in 1949. A foundation, known as the Land Rover Coffee Foundation, ensures that growers get a fair price for their products and assists in protecting the environment in which Land Rover Coffee products are grown . The Land Rover Coffee Foundation co-operates with organizations like Fairtrade, the Rainforest Alliance and organic accreditation bodies.
So when you have a cup of Land Rover Coffee, know that you are drinking to a worthy cause!
