Producers to ensure good community relations and sustainable production. Tarrazu is the most famous and highest-producing coffee region in Costa Rica. The canton was awarded Denomination of Origin status in 2019, and its distinctive cup profile with fine acidity and full body differentiates it from the broader Los Santos area. Coffee farms range from 1,200 to 1,800 meters above sea level. The region is affectionately known as Costa Rica's nursery for great coffee. The Anaerobic process begins with handpicked mature coffee cherries selected at their ripest to ensure high sugar content. At the mill, the coffee is depulped and put in air-tight, stainless-steel tanks with the mucilage left on. The absence of oxygen stimulates anaerobic fermentation, developing unique acids such as lactic and malic that result in a very complex flavor. Once sufficiently fermented, the coffee is dried to 11.5% moisture and rested to allow complex and exotic flavors to develop.
