Puerto Rican Coffee Quest

Get Lost and Go Local with Kelley Ferro in...


PUERTO RICO! I've heard that Puerto Rico is known for having some of the best coffee in the world, but was it true? The only way to find out was to go to the source and to find out where the locals drink it.
So, I went to a plantation in Central Puerto Rico called Hacienda San Pedro to meet with the owner that has been growing coffee for generations. He explained the process to me and showed me how coffee goes from a tree to a cherry to a bean to a cup.
After, I stopped in to try out the local coffee shop that has been serving up coffee and mayorcas to tourists and locals for 109 years. La Bombonera's charm and delicious coffee and pastries helped to complete the picture of coffee in Puerto Rico today.
