Unlikerepparttar other “exotic” coffees ofrepparttar 146243 world, La Minita is in this category for one reason: QUALITY! I once spent a few days with a farmer from Jamaica who wanted to increase his crop. When he was told how to make his coffee better, he replied: “I can sell every bean I can grow for $17.00 a pound; all I want to do is get more production”. Unfortunately this is oftenrepparttar 146244 case inrepparttar 146245 exotics. Jamaican Blue Mountain, Hawaiian Kona and other exotics demand high prices but way too often do not deliverrepparttar 146246 cup. LaMinita sells for far less than Jamaican and Kona and is always a superb coffee at a reasonable price. Visitrepparttar 146247 La Minita web site at: www.laminita.com .
