Costa Rica Tarrazu
The
approximately 300 Arabica varieties have been enthusing coffee experts
for quite some time. South of the capital city of San José lies this
growing region Tarrazu, one of the most renowned of the country. When
Colombo lay anchor at Costa Rica (spanish: rich coast), coffee wasn't
known there. The first plants were brought there from Cuba about 250
years ago. Today, there are 100 coffee plants per capita in Costa Rica.
This nation is a coffee country of superlatives. Costa Rica was the
first Central American country which introduced academical and
argonomistical innovations and brought the cultivation and processing
methods to a world-wide leading level.
