Costa Rica has a deep coffee culture, superb coffee skills, and produces world-class high-quality coffee. Costa Rica is an excellent coffee producer, both in terms of its innate environmental advantages and its acquired efforts to produce quality coffee. Although Costa Rica ranks third from the bottom in terms of land area in Central America, its economic environment is better than that of half of the countries. Colombians say that it is coffee that has changed the country and enabled people to enjoy a rich environment. Coffee has indeed made an outstanding contribution to this country, and it is the industrious coffee people who have created excellent coffee.

Among the many excellent producing areas in Costa Rica, there is a famous producing area-Tarazu (Tarrazu), which can also be called Tarasu. Tarazhu is very famous in the world of boutique coffee and is one of the major coffee producing areas in the world. In the 2014 COE competition, of the 23 beans on the list, 17 came from Tarasu. Tarasu is located in the fertile volcanic region of Central America, which has a humid climate and fertile volcanic soil, abundant rainfall throughout the year, high altitude, and dense forest natural shade, providing a unique growth environment for coffee growth. Pesticides or artificial fertilizers are not used in the planting process. Nearly 95% of the coffee beans produced in Tarazhu Alpine are very hard beans (SHB), which generally grow above 1500 meters above sea level.

At present, the Tarazhu Cooperative has 26 member estates. Among them, Raminita Manor, which is one of the most famous coffee farms in Tarazu. La Minita produces about 1 million pounds of coffee beans a year, and after the entire estate produces coffee beans that are carefully selected to remove defects, only 15 per cent of the coffee beans can bear the mark of the Laminita estate, while the rest enter the coffee market. But the prices of these coffees entering the market are still higher than those of other beans produced in Central America. Raminita's strict management of all aspects of coffee production has established a world-class reputation and can be called a world-renowned coffee farm.
