Good Orosi Coffee is No More

Orosi is the coffee town in Costa Rica that I live in. It is surrounded by coffee fields, and used to produce some fine coffee - and was sold as such, by the local Coffee Store.

The coffee picking season has just started this year, and I have watched how this is being done. Only a few cherries are ripe now, and these should be picked, leaving the green cherries to ripen. But this is not being done - the whole branch is stripped of all the cherries, and dropped into the picker's basket!

Most of the crop is being wasted, as the season is just getting started!
