COSTA RICA - Coope Tarrazu

PROCESS: NATURAL

REGION: TARRAZU

VARIETAL: CATURRA

TASTE: BLACKBERRY, RIBENA, SMOOTH

About:

Something that makes Tarrazú particularly interesting is how consistent its identity is with seasonal cycles,  they have distinct wet and dry periods, and a  harvest that happens in a relatively narrow window.  This predictability allows producers and mills to  operate with a high level of timing precision,  especially when it comes to picking and drying. Costa Rica is also unique in that it legally prohibits the planting of lower-grade coffee varieties, meaning  producers are required to grow higher-quality  Arabica types. This has shaped the entire country’s  output over time, pushing it toward a reputation for clarity and structure rather than volume.
