Costa Rican - Tarrazu
Costa Rican - Tarrazu
In 1928, brother and sister Manuel and Romelia Rojas were among the first families to plant coffee in Tarrazú. This coffee is harvested from the region near the Palmichal rain forest. It is a great example of the cooperative coffee system at work in terms of fair prices, environmental concerns, and coffee quality. The rich volcanic soil and dry, cool nights of Costa Rica gives this coffee a smooth, distinctive taste. It aids in developing a sustainable coffee culture by protecting and improving the environment, maintaining high-quality, and economically impacting the community.
Cupping notes: Milk chocolate, citrus, caramel, hints of tropical fruit. Bright acidity, creamy body.
