Tarrazú is one of the most famous coffee-growing areas in Costa Rica. It produces about a quarter of the country's coffee. Farms here are located at heights of 1,350 to 1,500 meters above sea level. The harvest season matches the dry months from November to March. These conditions allow for meticulous sun-drying, which highlights the coffee’s sweetness and vibrant complexity.
Tirra comes from the cooperative CoopeTarrazú. It is a group of more than 3,500 farmers and families in San José, Costa Rica. The co-op is known for its commitment to sustainability and helping the community. It provides hands-on support to its members and invests in long-term solutions for problems like coffee rust.
This micro-lot is yellow honey processed. This method keeps some of the coffee cherry’s sticky fruit, called “mucilage,” on the bean while it dries.
The result? It features a medium body and a mild acidity, enhanced by subtle flavors of honeysuckle and citrus undertones. The lingering sweet finish complements its silky texture, making Tirra a perfect choice for those seeking a smooth, flavorful experience with a distinctive twist.
