The Background

Costa Rica produces some of the best coffee to come out of Central America. The most well known growing region is Tarrazu, which is located just outside of San José, the capital city of Costa Rica. Tarrazu coffee is grown among Costa Rica's highest mountain range, Talamanca. These beans benefit immensely from nutrient rich volcanic soils, high altitudes and a consistent balance between sunlight and rainfall. Cafe Britt is a very respectable roaster that prides themselves on environmentally friendly practices. They have many products to offer, and we think that Costa Rica Tarrazu coffee is one of their best!
