Costa Rican boutique coffee Tarasu produces coffee.

Costa Rica's high latitudes produce coffee beans famous in the world, rich, mild taste, but extremely sour, coffee beans here are carefully processed, it is because of this, only high-quality coffee. Tarasu, south of San José, Costa Rica's capital, is one of the country's most prized coffee plantations. Tarrazu is one of the world's leading coffee producers.

Costa Rican coffee is full of particles, with ideal acidity and unique aroma. Costa Rica's coffee industry, formerly controlled by the Instituto del Café de Costa Rica (ICAFE), has been taken over by the Official Coffee Council (Oficin del Café). Among coffee exports, those deemed substandard are colored with blue vegetable dye before being recycled for domestic sale. Coffee consumed domestically (dyed blue or undyed) accounts for about 10% of total production, and local coffee consumption per capita is twice that of Italy or the United States.

Costa Rica, which produces one-third of the world's coffee in all grades and varieties, has a place in the global coffee market. Although Costa Rica faces many times more natural disasters than other regions, its arable area is enough to compensate.
