Costa Rican Tarrazu

This region in Costa Rica has a long tradition of producing high quality coffee. It is SHB (Strictly Hard Bean) which indicates coffee grown above an altitude of 3900+ feet.

CoopeTarrazu was established in 1970 and has grown to become one of the most important contributors to the economic development of the Los Santos region of Tarrazu. The Coop assists its more than 2,600 members technical assistance, low-cost loans, and affordable fertilizers and employs approximately 10,000 people either directly in coffee production or in supporting roles. These employees allow CoopeTarrazu to control the entire production process for their coffee from harvest through sorting and milling and eventual exporting. This level of control allows for constant evaluation which leads to consistent quality year after year.

You will find this to be a "bright" coffee - high in acidity, medium in body, wonderfully aromatic, and rich in its own unique flavor - with a sharp distictive finish.
