Costa Rica "Tarrazu" FCJ Volcán Azúl

character and taste

For decades, Costa Rican coffee was processed in large processing plants. As a result, the coffee completely lost its uniqueness. Today, small farmers are able to process their coffee themselves and market it profitably. As a result, the quality has returned to the high level of the old days.

The "Tarrazu" derives its international recognition from its very expressive aromatic flavor, which is gentle on the stomach due to the artisanal roasting process. The aroma profile of this exemplary coffee has character and is complemented by a harmonious body and is one of the best coffees in the world.

origin and plantation

South of the capital, San José, lies our "Tarrazu" growing region, one of the most renowned in the country. The first coffee plants were only imported from Cuba around 250 years ago. Today, there are over 100 coffee trees for every inhabitant. The nation is a coffee country of superlatives: Costa Rica was the first Central American country to focus on scientific and agricultural innovations and to bring the cultivation and processing processes to a globally exemplary level.
