Our French Roast is smooth, rich and seductive with a dark chocolate finish. We have purchased this coffee direct from the Vargas family farm through the Coffee Source since 1996. Don Rodrigo Vargas represents the fourth generation from the Vargas family to produce coffee at Doka and he currently oversees all of the Doka production. The farm is located from 4,430-4,790 feet in altitude and is right next to the Poas Volcano in Sabanilla de Alajuela. The Poas Volcano is the largest volcanic crater in the world. This coffee has won our hearts for many years. In addition, it has been recognized at the Sinter Café Cupping Competition as the First Place Winner in 2000. If you find yourself planning a trip to Costa Rica, visit the Doka Estate for a tour of the farm. Tell them Barrington Coffee sent you!
Your purchase of the Doka French supports our annual financial contribution to the La Hilda Daycare Center in Alajuela, Costa Rica. La Hilda Daycare supports children of farming families between the ages of 3 – 12 through their educational, medical, nutritional and teaching programs. We believe that we can improve all of our lives by working together.
This coffee is a part of the Barrington Green Seal Program© which preserves the vibrancy of the green coffee by storing it in an hermetically sealed environment before roasting.

Barrington Coffee Roasting
Gregg Charbonneau and Barth Anderson founded Barrington Coffee Roasting Company in 1993. Having met in college, they quickly discovered their common love of everything coffee. Barth, an environmental scientist by education, was drawn to coffee at the age of 14 and he clearly hasn’t shaken it since. Gregg started roasting coffee during his college years for a local coffeehouse and continued while building a career in art restoration. This combination of art and science is the foundation of their success. Devotion, total commitment, fanaticism: these are good words to describe the power-coffee duo. Their commitment at Barrington Coffee is hands-on. Decidedly not a giant corporate empire, on any given day Gregg and Barth can be seen unloading bags of green coffee, cupping the new crop of Ethiopian beans or roasting for the day’s production. Over the years, Barrington Coffee has grown to include a select staff of coffee driven professionals. Together with Gregg and Barth, this team is responsible for preparing coffee each day at the Roastery in Lee, MA. A steady stream of coffee-centric conversation with customers and local devotees stopping by to pick up a quick bag of Barrington Gold Espresso Blend are all part of the daily culture at the Roastery. If you would like to learn more about the personal history of Barrington Coffee, check out Rebecca Gray’s book, American Artisanal: Finding the Country’s Best Real Food, from Cheese to Chocolate. An entire chapter of her book has been devoted to Barrington Coffee. Our passion is to discover the finest and most exciting coffees from around the world each season, roast them to perfection and deliver them fresh to our customers. We believe a truly great coffee should be roasted to highlight its inherent quality without imparting overwhelming roast. This is why you will notice such a difference in Barrington Coffee. The unifying thread that ties our coffees together is the exceptional quality they offer in the cup. They hail from the finest coffee farms in the world and come to exist, first and foremost by virtue of the great effort and care that has been devoted to their production. We applaud the individuals that grow our coffees by paying generously for the fruits of their labor and singing their praises on our website. We believe that directly supporting quality driven producers is the ideal manner in which to promote sound, responsible growing practices, economic sustainability, and ultimately the best quality coffee. We identify and source extraordinary quality coffees from the finest coffee farms in the world.
