Savoring Costa Rica: The Story Behind Ghost Town’s Tarrazú Coffee

Discovering Tarrazú: The Coffee Region of Costa Rica

The Tarrazú region, also known as Los Santos, is one of Costa Rica’s crown jewels for coffee production. Its high altitudes, fertile volcanic soil, and cool mountain climate create ideal conditions for cultivating beans with vibrant flavor profiles. This region isn’t just known for coffee—its heart lies in the small city of San Marcos de Tarrazú. Named after Saint Mark, the city carries a rich cultural and spiritual heritage that resonates through the coffee it produces. Saint Mark, recognized as one of the four evangelists and the author of the second Gospel in the Bible, lends a symbolic connection to the region's dedication to quality and authenticity. His influence can be felt in the pride of the farmers who meticulously care for the coffee plants.
