As the ninth largest coffee producer in the world, Costa Rica
is widely known for it’s high-grade mountain grown coffee.
From the full-bodied Tarrazú, to the clean bold taste of
the Orosi Valley blends, Costa Rican coffee has a smoky trace
and distinctive acidity evident to many of its drinkers. Coffee
is harvested from November to January and as in North America,
the school holidays correspond with the harvest season. The cultivators
are mainly small farmers organized into co-operatives which form
a federation which is responsible for exports. Due to the use
of high-end technology the yield obtained is extremely high.
