Description
Costa Rica's Tarrazú region is renowned for producing some of the world's finest coffee, with several distinctive qualities that set it apart. Tarrazú benefits from high-altitude cultivation, typically between 1,200 to 2,000 meters above sea level, volcanic soil rich in nutrients and ideal climate with a seven-month rainy season followed by a dry summer. These conditions contribute to the development of high-quality Arabica beans, particularly the Caturra and Catuai varieties. Tarrazu coffee gets its rich flavor through its geography, which is located between the Pacific Coast and the Talamanca Sierra — a geography that traps coastal moisture in its soil, creating ideal conditions. Tarrazu is an excellent coffee with a reputation as being some of the finest in the World. Tarrazú coffee is characterized by a round body, pleasant and potent acidity, fruity flavor with hints of chocolate, complex aroma and notes of caramel and citrus.
