Costa Rica San Rafael Tarrazú (AUG 25)

Costa Rica San Rafael Tarrazú is sourced from 1,300 producer families in the Tarrazú region of southern San José. The Central Valley is sheltered between the Pacific Coast and the Talamanca Sierra—a geography that traps coastal moisture, retaining it as precipitation. Caturra and Catuai varieties experience ideal growing conditions here with high altitudes and ample sunlight. After harvest, this lot is processed and meticulously sorted at Beneficio Palmichal. Tarrazú has long been recognized for superior coffee. In 2019 it a received Denomination of Origin certification, a legal distinction that, like Champagne in France, can only be applied to coffees from the area.
