An introduction to the characteristics of the coffee flavor and taste of the Costa Rican Goddess Manor

Costa Rica occupies only 0.03% of the world's land area, but it is home to nearly 4% of the world's species, making it one of the most biologically diverse countries in the world. 26 per cent of the country is designated as national parks or nature reserves, including 11 wetlands, 2 biological reserves and 3 World Heritage sites. Forest cover is 52 per cent of the country.

Natural resources include iron, manganese, mercury, bauxite, gold and silver, among which bauxite, iron and coal reserves amount to 150 million tons, 400 million tons and 50 million tons respectively. Recent developments are mainly distributed in the central golden belt region of the Tilaran Cordillera in the northwest. Calcium carbonate ore is distributed in the northwest and has a higher grade. The purity of calcium carbonate extracted from limestone can reach 99.5%. Costa Rica attaches great importance to environmental protection and the exploitation of natural resources is severely restricted.

Oil is completely imported, mainly from Colombia and other countries, monopolized by RECOPE, with an average annual import of 3 million tons of crude oil. Since 2012, the National Oil Company has suspended crude oil refining production due to aging facilities, and fuel oil has been imported entirely. In 2013, Costa Rica imported 19.3 million barrels of oil, which amounted to US $2.3 billion, accounting for 5.5% of GDP. [6]

Costa Rica has a presidential republic with separate legislative, judicial and executive powers

Constitution

The current Constitution entered into force on 7 November 1949. The Constitution stipulates that the State shall have a republican system of power with the separation of legislative, judicial and executive powers. The Office of the Comptroller-General and the Supreme Electoral Court are independent bodies. The president is the head of state and government and can stand for re-election every other term; the president and vice president are elected directly for a term of four years; in the absence of the president, the first vice president, the second vice president and the speaker take over in turn. In April 2003, Colombia amended the constitution again to allow the president to be re-elected for alternate terms.

Tarrazu, Costa Rica, is one of the world's leading coffee producers, producing coffee with a light, pure flavor and pleasant aroma. Costa

The volcanic soils of the region are fertile and well drained, making it the first country in Central America to grow coffee and bananas for commercial value. Coffee and bananas are the country's main exports. Coffee was introduced to Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729, and today its coffee industry is one of the most well-organized in the world, producing up to 1700 kilograms per hectare. Costa Rica has a population of 3.5 million, but coffee trees number 400 million, and coffee exports account for 25% of the country's total exports. Costa Rica also benefits from the Turrialba of the Central American Agricultural Research Institute (IAAC) in Tarazu, an important international research centre. Super hard beans High-quality Costa Rican coffee is called "super hard beans" and can grow at altitudes above 1500 meters. Altitude has always been a problem for coffee growers. Coffee beans are better at higher altitudes, not only because higher altitudes increase the acidity of coffee beans and thus enhance flavor, but also because lower night temperatures at higher altitudes cause trees to grow slowly, thus making coffee beans more flavorful. In addition, due to the high altitude drop caused by sufficient rainfall, coffee tree growth is also very favorable. However, while there are many advantages to growing coffee at higher altitudes, the additional transportation costs associated with it must be taken into account, which may well make coffee production unprofitable. Costa Rican coffee has adopted new techniques to increase efficiency, including the use of "electric eyes" to select beans and identify beans of irregular size
