The famous Tarasu of Costa Rica
The drop at high altitude causes sufficient rainfall, which is also very beneficial to the growth of coffee trees.

Although the development of boutique coffee started relatively late, but now Costa Rican boutique coffee is developing rapidly, with honey-treated mild acidity, soft taste and sweet high-quality berry flavor, it is not to be underestimated. And the so-called honey treatment method means that when the coffee bean is washed to remove the peel and flesh, the remaining part of the pectin flesh is selected for another fermentation process, which is called honey treatment.
Tarasu, south of SanJose, the capital of Costa Rica, and the producing areas of the central and western valleys.

Costa Rican coffee is called "extra hard beans". This kind of coffee can grow at an altitude of more than 1500 meters. Altitude has always been a problem for coffee growers.
The higher the altitude, the better the coffee beans, not only because the higher altitude can increase the acidity of the coffee beans and thus increase the flavor, but also because the night temperature at the higher altitude is lower.
