aim_for_the_sun Posted January 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 16, 2017 We are interested in getting some good coffees in different ports on our Western Caribbean cruise. Any recommendations? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDrankWhat Posted January 16, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I've picked up coffee from Belize, St Thomas and San Juan. Look for Blue Mountain.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisergrandma Posted January 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I love the coffee from Rotan and normally bring back several (6+ bags). If you can buy it from a grocery store do. It will be less than half what you pay at the port or in Coxen Hole. I only found 1 brand in Belize and it was just okay. Never checked in Cozumel but plan to when we go in April.

dan359 Posted January 17, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I always seek out a grocery store. The some of the best coffee's that I have purchased have been from a grocery store. Plus they are not overpriced. And you get to see how other people shop. Most grocery stores take credit cards so it is an even better deal than the exchange rates these place charge.

cruisergrandma Posted January 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Don't remember the name brand. The bag has a bird on the cover. When do you sail? We will be in Rotan the first week of April and I will be buying coffee. I can let you know when we return if that will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina Girl 99 Posted January 19, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I bought some of the Walala brand Honduran coffee right at the (Coxen Hole) dock in Roatan. It was some of the BEST coffee I have ever had and wish I had bought more than 1 bag. I think it was $12 USD. I'm going back in October and plan on stocking up :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aim_for_the_sun Posted January 19, 2017 Author #11 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Great pic Carolina Girl 99! Thanks for the visual- can't wait to try Walala! My fiancé is a coffee and espresso lover, so we are excited to bring home lots of coffees to try. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
