The majority of Costa Rican coffee comes from Tarrazu, near Volcan Poas, in the Southern Pacific region. It is here that humid climate, high altitude and rich volcanic soil contribute to conditions which produce high quality coffee. “La Pastora” estate, a small community overlooking San Marcos, grows the finest of Tarrazu coffees. 100% hand-harvested, naturally sun dried, washed and grown in very small harvests make this rare coffee hard to find but worth it.
Costa Rica is regarded as one of the world's premiere coffee growing regions, thanks to its volcanic soil and ideal drainage. This Coffee also benefits from fertile soils, which are rich in volcanic ash. Its altitude goes from 4,200 to over 6,300 feet, with an average of 5,100. This high altitude means that this coffee takes longer to mature, and therefore produce denser and richer beans this type of coffee bean is graded as a SHG bean. This altitude is enhanced by a specific microclimate created by the San Marcos Tarrazu Mountains, where we are located. The warmth of the valley protects our coffee from the cold San Marcos nights, permitting us to grow coffee at higher altitudes

Of the three non-volcanic regions, is the highest and driest under cultivation? This area is one of the best regions in Guatemala for coffee production. Antigua is at the foot of the Cuchumatanes, the highest non-volcanic mountain range in Central America. There are currents of hot air that sweep up from Mexico’s Tehuantepec plain that cross paths with cool air descending from the Cuchumatanes Mountains. This region is thus protected from frost, allowing the coffee to be cultivated up to 2,000 meters. Huehuetenango extreme remoteness requires that nearly all producers process their own coffee. Fortunately, the region has an almost unlimited number of rivers and streams, so a mill can be located just about anywhere.
