Puerto Rico - Pura Vida from Pura Bean Coffee Company where you should try. The owners started their coffee shop journey when visiting Costa Rica and falling in love with Costa Rican coffee.

Coffee from Ethiopia - people say that Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee. It has typically a light to medium body and higher acidity due to the unique roasting techniques. In Jacksonville, we have an authentic Ethiopian restaurant that serves their native Ethiopian coffee imported from Africa. If you want to try Ethiopian Style Coffee/Buna ba Jebena check out Ahadu Ethiopian Restaurant
Coffee from Kenya can be found while visiting beautiful Vilano Beach at Growers Alliance Coffee to try authentic Kenyan coffee. They even have a drive-thru. Get authentic Kenyan coffee and support this Non Profit organization focused on improving the lifestyle, and education of the coffee growers in Kenya Africa. I love visiting this cool coffee shop especially when they have live music events. Watch the video and learn about the purpose of this cool exotic Jacksonville coffee spot.
