Costa Rica coffee is some of the best coffee in the world. I wake up at 4am everyday. My dog Alaska greets with our morning rituals. A pat on the head , a good morning. She waits by the door. I get up and let her out.
First thing is making coffee. I put my pot of water on the stove and turn the stove on. Then I take out my chorreador and rinse off the cloth bag called a bolsita , rinse ot off . I place the bolista in the Chorreador.
I decide that I want a strong cup of coffee and I put in more than enough coffee in the bolsita for a strong cup.
The water in the pot starts to boil , I pour the water thru the Boista , and I am rewarded by the smell of coffee. Not just any coffee but the rich dark roast of Costa Rica coffee.
I take a sip , my mind and taste buds come alive.
The chorread has been used for over 200 years in Costa Rica.
As I sip my coffee i can hear the howlers monkeys greating yet another day. Towards the east I see daylight wining over the darkness , then there is color in the sky. Alaska knows to give me time , she lays down next to me .
The simple life of living in Costa Rica , i know it will be a Pura Vida day
