Talamancan Tarrazú Coffee

Tarrazú is a very beautiful region placed in the west-central portion of Costa Rica, approximately 40 miles from San Jose, straddled in the Talamanca Sierra mountain range and offers several climatic advantages for Arabica coffee cultivation.  Besides, altitude, the soil is rich in nutrients from volcanic ash.

Coffee from Tarrazú grows small and hard because of the combination of elevation, cooler climate and significant drainage on the mountainside.   The size and texture of the Tarrazú beans itself are signs of a superb coffee.
