Costa Rica Best Chocolate
At Costa Rica Best Chocolate we want to do conservation through sustainable tourism, that is why we present a totally authentic and responsible service on the rational exploitation of Costa Rica’s forests, transmitting knowledge about nature and sharing the secrets of cocoa production to domestic use in the rural area of Sarapiquí, in 2014 two colleagues met through the exchange of ideas, we both agreed that we wanted to have better opportunities in life and also that we wanted to do conservation more intensively, Geiner Huertas and Rodolfo Alvarado They have worked as tourist guides in the Sarapiquí area. Being naturalists has allowed them to have a sense of the environmental problems that affect wild species, as well as an understanding of how this affects human life.

He was the founder of the hamlet of Chilamate, according to the first settlers, from a gigantic Chilamate tree, the name was given to this town since the tree It was a landmark for hunters and travelers who passed by this tree.
