This exceptional coffee comes from Costa Rica, more precisely from the famous San Diego Tarrazú region. The region is globally renowned for producing top-quality coffees that grow on fertile soils and under ideal climatic conditions. Tarrazú, located about two hours south of San José, is often referred to as the "goldmine" of coffee. The high altitudes above 1,500 meters, the moderate climate, and well-defined seasons create optimal conditions for the slow ripening of coffee cherries. Here, plantations thrive on small farms, which are on average only about 3 hectares in size. Many farmers deliver their ripe cherries to external wet mills, known as "Beneficios," where they are further processed. This coffee is processed by the Beneficio San Diego mill. Established since 1888, the processing plant employs state-of-the-art technologies and collaborates closely with over 5,500 coffee growers to ensure the highest quality. The mill also plays a central role in community work and promotes sustainable cultivation methods.

Processing and Result

The processing of this coffee is done through a special anaerobic fermentation process. The coffee cherries are fermented in an oxygen-free environment, converting the cherries' natural sugars into special acids. This process creates unique flavours, further enhanced by selecting the ripest cherries from the highest altitudes of Tarrazú. After fermentation, the coffee is dried on sun terraces until it reaches the optimal moisture content of 11.5%, then rests to further develop its flavour notes.

The result is a coffee with warm flavour notes of freshly baked apple pie and cinnamon rolls, with an aftertaste of brown sugar. The complex structure of this coffee makes it particularly multifaceted, ensuring that the flavours linger on the palate for a long time.

Recommendation for Preparation

Costa Rica anaerobic Tarrazú should ideally be enjoyed as a single variety to fully appreciate its special flavour profile. It is excellent as a filter coffee or in the French Press, giving it an even fuller, rounder taste. It also tastes great as a Café Crème or Lungo or Americano. If you find the acidity too intense, feel free to refine it with a little milk.

Ingo's Roasting Recommendation & Roasting Profiles

We roast the coffee rather lightly to not overshadow the specific flavor notes with too strong roasting aromas. With very light roasts, it develops a noticeably perceivable apple acidity. If this acidity is too intense for you, you can adjust it to a medium roast level.
