About the region
Tarrazú is Costa Rica's most famous and highest-producing coffee region, awarded Denomination of Origin status for a distinctive cup marked by fine acidity and full body. Farms here average around three hectares, and cherries are delivered to the San Diego wet mill, the most modern mill in the country, where lots are selected on farm condition and cherry ripeness. The honey process originated in Costa Rica: some or all of the mucilage is left on the parchment through drying, lending a sweetness closer to a natural while keeping the brightness of a washed.
